Underwater Glock firing
Most have probably seen something like this, but I thought this one showed the effect (underwater 'pocket' formed by expanding gas) quite nicely, as well as the pathetic distance the bullet manages to travel:

Re: Underwater Glock firing
I would have thought the bullet would have travelled further than that?? Im ALMOST tempted to try it now.
Friggen James Bond movies destroyed this for me, bullets wizzing this way and that whenever he's underwater...

Re: Underwater Glock firing
Wow
Would it not travel further if it was fired outside the water?
Im guessing that the underwater "explosion" has several times less effect because its underwater whereas the bullet will gain much more momentum if fired from outside into the water
