Anyone had this happen?????????

[Daveo 61]

Out shooting pigeons coming to roost the other night, this happened

[borntoshoot 1]

Woah f**k me bet u shat yourself a bit when that happened. just shows how important it is to always check your barrels before you load the gun.

 

you were f*****g lucky it went at the muzzel end or you could have been seriously injured. being a side by side i assume its an old gun? looks just like my mates. Baikal??

That was my thought when I saw the picture. You're so lucky that it happened so far away from your hand!

 

What was the cause? Plugged barrel at a guess? Hope you're ok?!

judging by the little bit still in tack at the end i would say it was a mud plug as well.

I bet is was more likely a stuck wad.

2 years ago I bought 1000 12g rc sipes 32g 6,s out pigeon shooting I reloaded but it sounded strange as the cartridges went in checking there was a 20g rc 32g sipe I have never bought or owned a 20 bore or 20 bore cartridges, RC denied it was their fault but I ain't never bought them again.

surely a wadd would have been pushed out after the shot as a 20bore wadd must be smaller than a 12bore wadd anyway.

Tell what? that its a baikal??? The rib looks exactly the same and the barrels go down ( or did in this case) to a really thin point.

A 20 bore wont fire in a 12 they fit nicely in the chamber so that you can load a 12 above it then good bye face and hands.

 

 

 

As to the barrel at the start of the thread that looks just like the barrel on my bosses gun after a wad from a rotweil cartridge stuck at the start of the choke half way through a partridge drive.

[Daveo 61]

I believe it was a stuck plaswad, that did it, The gun didnt feel right on the shot before, i opened it blow the smoke out and could see daylight I thought through the smoke....... as it was fairly dusk it could have been a wad.

No injuries were sustained apart from to my boxers when i saw what had happened.

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Daveo 61]

Its not a Baikal, if it was this would'nt have happened.

Its an old Big Notti, but apart from some bruisers it was fine... or so i thought.

[borntoshoot 1]

you got a good point there mate. feck that. bet you didnt fire the second barrel after that.

[jackinbox99 41]

My thoughts exactly. Jesus Christ, I would have filled my boxers up to the brim if that happened to me.

[t5avs1 2]

[Kieren 2]

Can convert it into a sawn off now mate

Joke. Before anyone takes it seriously.
