Man, I wish I could shoot from my living room! :D

Try as I might, I could not see any flash on my monitor. I'm guessing there is SOME visible flash on the centerfire pistols, but I can't see it on the video...

When I was a teenager, I had the brilliant idea of shooting 22 short down my hallway at home when no one was there...

Too stupid to realize all the lead contamination I was flinging in my parents house... Only shot a handful of rounds though.. :secret:

I hope you swept up the unburned powder off the floor and aired the house out before your wife came home:lol:

Entertaining video!

THe silencer caught the bi-products, and my wife is used to my antics. lol

As far as lead contamination from the primers, etc I've only shot in my house twice. In those two videos. Its not something I do everyday. lol

Glad you enjoyed the video. The fact they totally emliminate flash is HUGE! Big advantage!

So you couldn't see any flash whatsoever in person? Even from the ejection port on the 9 and 45? I noticed you mentioned something about that ammo using a low-flash powder (can't recall what ammo it was, I'm on my phone right now with poor network speed, so I can't easily view it).

Try looking through a set of NVG's next time. I can promise you'll see some flash/sparks. ;)

Winchester Ranger SXT. Most SD ammo is loaded with flash suppressant.
