The 'slug' is the round. The 'plug' is what goes between the powder and the shell to cause momentum. It would be like loading a cannon -- the powder goes first, followed by something that can 'plug' the cavity and let the later burnt powder build pressure from expansion when lit... Then the ball that is the round (or in this case, slug').

That called the wad, but I think that is what they meant. A plug usually limits the number of shells in the magazine tube, because state laws limit you to usually 3 or so for bird hunting.

In this situation we’d take our ambulance and “stage” a safe distance away. I’m guessing in this situation that’s why the injured officers had to get themselves to the waiting ambulance.

I’m a former Missouri EMT. OUr training and the service I worked for, forbade us from entering an area/scene if we were aware or suspicious of danger on scene, whether fallen power lines, active fire, gunshots, or a person wielding other weaponry or being assaultive. We were called to a scene that was downgraded to a psych non emergency. I drove by to see a man chasing his parents across a yard with a butcher knife.

Moreover, one must consider the rationale behind such actions. While there may be legitimate concerns about corrupt individuals within law enforcement, provoking a confrontation with them could result in dire consequences for oneself and loved ones.

​@@jestapath7373 "What is a defend against the government situation exactly if I may ask?" There isn't one particular scenario. However, there are many examples throughout history. We can start with the French Resistance in World War Two, where rudimentary handguns were dropped for the people to arm themselves. They were single shot pistols for the purpose of assassination of a German soldier. The French Resistance would then take the weapon and ammo from the soldier and then use that firearm for further purposes of their role in reconnaissance and sabotage. We Americans understand that while freedom is risky, the reward for maintaining a right to keep and bear arms for the people is vital in perpetually ensuring that, should a time arise to have a call to arms to either quell an invasion, resist against a tyrant, or protect oneself from those who wish to do harm is more important than safe unwilling compliance.

How many people do you know have taken it upon themselves to LEARN and collect the required trauma aid items required to offer such aid?

[@lolly1405]

The Beebies are called buckshot. It’s what’s packed into the shell and it spreads out as the bullet travels. That’s why shotguns do so much damage. These Beebies penetrate and can go completely through your body.

[@michaellarocca4879]

And blow the lung completely out of the body? There is no bullet in buck and bird shot. Just the BBs themselves. And neither is overly effective beyond 30 yards. A solid slug is a 1 ounce bullet. THATS dangerous out to about 100 yards, but not what they got hit with.

[@loganbaileysfunwithtrains606]

The cop was shot with bird shot, not buck shot

[@BudCory]

The "BB's"are different sizes. Birdshot is what it says. For birds, hence smaller. Buckshot is also what it says. It can take something the size of a deer down, so it is bigger. Birdshot could blind you, but the odds of death is greatly reduced.

[@THE2NDDAWN]

Shell= the case that holds the round, gun powder, and primer Plug = the wadding ( usually plastic) that is in between the round and the gunpowder that acts as a temporary barrier to seal the gasses in the barrel till the round makes its way down range The slug= is the round itself ( a shotgun shell can hold many types and sizes of “ shot”) the biggest being a slug which is called such because it literally is one big slug or chunk of lead, usually about the size of your thumb or slightly bigger depending on the gage of shotgun 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, and .410 the bigger the gage number the smaller the shell size the gun can hold in the chamber, 4 being the biggest, .410 being the smallest

@13:05 explains your question regarding the ammo. Officer was shot with BUCKSHOT . 3 main types shotgun ammo : Birdshot - several BBs for shooting fowl(imagine like 30 tiny bbs) Buckshot - (10 or 15 larger bbs), used for larger game. And Slug - one giant slug / bullet - think of a large AA battery

The fact that BOTH cops stick their faces directly in the line of fire STILL boggles my mind.

Both cops acted like the whole situation was not serious even though he had a gun. So crazy! **I've seen this video a bunch and I'm VERY glad they are both ok & back to work. Just hope some tactical stuff changed in regards to safety AND the city got another ambulance 💜**

[@bearcat7666]

Ah yes, because hiding and letting him move around his neighborhood freely while firing his shotgun is a great idea. Would just give you a reason to complain that they should have acted sooner. The reality is you've never been shot at and acting like you know or would do better than them is laughable. Go back to your video games little boy.

the difference between a slug and a plug is a slug is a solid projectile. and i believe a plug is inside the shotgun shell if you have buck/bird shot and it helps keep the pellets together till they exit the barrel. also buck shot has less pellets then bird shot but buck shot has bigger pellets and buck shot is more powerful

[@dblomqu1]

A slug is a type of round for a shotgun. Its a large, solid projectile that is quite powerful and destructive. Has the potential to go through houses, people.. etc until it hits something solid or rigid.

[@Tingus_pingus1]

A slug is a like firing a regular bullet. a plug is what keeps the shot away from the powder and if anyone is wondering what kind of ammunition he is using it is some form of birdshot so very small pellets and power compared to something like buckshot.

Plug is the plastic backing in the shell between the primer/powder and the projectile. Its a basket for the shot basically

[@gamester512]

Most cops are genuinely good people who just want to help and keep people safe. The only reason you see so much about corrupt cops is because they are so rare by comparison. The good cops get next to no recognition in most cases since they are just "doing their job", but because corrupt cops are doing the opposite they suddenly get all of the attention.

[@Garandman-cv4tm]

6:00 he’s referring to the wad which is what separates the powder from the pellets in the shell. The wad shoots out with the pellets keeping them together until the wad and pellets leave the barrel which then they separate from each other after some distance. If he fires into the air the wad would travel so far until it no longer contains the pellets and fall to the ground. The wad being a plastic bowl in a way.

[@dominicsharbono7418]

Theres several elements to your questions about shotguns. When they said "plug" they're refering to a piece of plastic that's in front of the propellant and behind the "bullet" or shot. It just pushes the shot out evenly. So when he's shooting into the air it's shooting "bb's" or shot and the plastic piece just falls down onto the ground without risk to anyone and fell into the neighbors yard. The rounds typically used can be slugs, buckshot, or birdshot. This man was shooting birdshot. Birdshot is shot thats between the size of gravel and bb's used primarily for of course birds. Buckshot is the typical lethal shell used that consists of roughly 1cm ball bearing like balls. The slug is a 1oz or .02kg led "bullet".

[@richardpickett3882]

A shotgun fires several different rounds. You have a slug, an ounce of solid lead, .00 buck, 9 .45 caliber bb’s, birdshot, which has a lot of little bb’s and several others. They got hit with the birdshot it looks like because the first two would have killed them.

[@francesbaker3488]

I absolutely love your channel. Keep them coming ❤❤❤❤

[@Cpt_Boss]

The plug flys out after the slug (bullet) the plug is the divider between the gunpowder and slug in the shell

[@mindyourbizok]

The first two officer should have requested a backup immediately once they spoke to the neighbors and realize how dangerous the man is. The also should have requested the SWAT team.

[@Irish_Hooligan]

12:19 the bbs are referring to the load used in the shotgun. Some loads like bird shot are small tiny bbs and they will kill you close range, or really mess your day up if your far enough away like this cop.

[@skyshroudsylvan6022]

[@TheHurkulez]

5:38 To home load a shotgun sheel: Primer in base brass of sheel, then powder, then plug/wad(plastic/pressed paper), then pellets and or slug. Pellets for small game and or water fowl, turkey, dove, etc... Slug shotgun shells are primarily used on big game. You could think of a shotgun shell like loading a muzzel weapon. But doing the loading process in a shotgun shell then sticking the shell into a shot gun. NOTE: Plug/Wad keeps the pellets seperated from the powder.

[@aristonia1991]

5:59 in the bottom of a shell is plug so there is a good seal between ammunition and the shell so it's propelled correctly, ammunition could be birdshot (very small pallets), buckshot(slightly larger then a BB from airsoft) and slug (one solid object).

[@ZeldaVStheworld]

Slug is the bullet. Plug is basically the compacted wad of fiber behind the bullet. Shell is the plastic that the wad and bullet is housed in.

[@justinyoung9868]

Slugs rounds are solid 1oz chucks of lead, plugs are used for bird/buck shot rounds. The plug holds the shot in place while inside the round and when fired off you will see a little piece of plastic fly through the air.

[@BigBear--]

A "slug" is the actual "bullet" in a shotgun shell. Usually a 1oz lead "rifled slug", meant to be shot out of smooth bore shotgun. That is a huge round meant for big game hunting (or anything else you want to put a really big hole in, at more of a distance than any pellet round). Anyway...the "plug" is part of a shotgun shell that's used to keep the pellets or slugs in place, along with the gun powder for that load. You'll usually find shells ejected near the shooter (if they ejected them), and the plugs about 15-50 feet away from where the shooter shot.

[@kdrapertrucker]

A slug is a large bullet fired from a shotgun used for deer hunting, the "plug" is actually called the "wad" it is a cup shaped plastic piece that sits between the gunpowder in the shell, and the "shot" or slug in the shotgun shell to properly propel the shot down the barrel.

[@theronraam23]

The plug is a part of a shotgun shell that also gets discharged when the shell is fired. A slug, on the other hand, is a shot round style of projectile that acts similar to a standard bullet, as opposed to shot which disperses over an area like a cone, which is where shotguns get their name.

[@alexpolansky]

“A plug goes in the sink and a slug goes across the road” 😂🤣😂🤣😂 I ain’t even mad at it hahahaha

[@JoeCensored]

The "plug" most likely is the insert inside shot shells which hold all the pellets in place. It flies out the barrel when a shot shell is fired. This is different than a slug, which is a single solid projectile.

[@Jimmy.R01]

The slug is the actual projectile. Plug goes in the shell, the shell is the casing… most rounds when fully intact prior to firing are referred to as a cartridge. There is also the plug that goes in the shotgun but it doesn’t see like that’s what they are referring to.

[@zyourzgrandzmaz]

A shell is the case of the bullet. The plug is what is between the slug (projectile) and the powder. Its a plastic ring. Shotgun shells have primer, powder, plug, projectile. Look it up if you want but thats what a plug of a shotty shell is

[@MrNobody91]

5:55 Like Aiden said, the shell is what holds all of the pellets, bbs, or the slug (and well I guess and the plug as well lol). The slug is the big piece of lead/metal that is actually being shot, (aka the projectile that's being shot at the target). Also, when they say plug, I'm assuming they mean the Wad/wadding inside of the shotgun shell, which is used at the front of the shell to hold like the bbs or the slug in place and all. And when the trigger is pulled the Wad (a piece of like plastic sort of cone shaped materia, Ig plastic, which I always thought it was like more it a fabric of some sort other than plastic cause of how it looks when being fired out and all, it looks more like fabric than plastic imo. But yeah, it's just what it used at the front of the shell, again, it's just there to hold everything being shot out in the front of the shell and all, Ig to ensure that everything is together before being shot out of the shell. But yeah, Ik that's a lil bit longer than I anticipated it being and maybe I'm not the best at explaining stuff myself, but I hope from what lil bit of knowledge I have when it comes to shotguns and all. I'm more knowledgeable about pistols and all more tbh, tho I do love the old shotgun I had (it was called like an over under shotgun, where u pressed a button and the front of thr barrel lowered ad pointed down to load the shell in thr very end of the barrel closest to/the stock. Which sadly my mom give it to a neighbor at the time who was a family friend at the time, who ended up fucking me out of the gun, which really made me extremely mad and I'll never forgive him cause it was the 4/10 shotgun my grandmother give me a couple years before she passed away and was one of the only things I had left of her (other than a 22 revolver that got stolen by the person I lived with in middle school before we moved back to the original city we were from). It just makes me so sad that the couple of things that were the only things I had left from my grandmother were taken from me, and one by someone we trusted , and he was only ever asked to hold onto the gun for me and my mom cause I was going thru a lot at the time and was severely depressed and she asked him to hold onto it, and he ended up giving it to his son and no telling what happened after that, but I'll never forgive him and know that I'm older I wanna see and beat tf out of him not matter how old he is for stealing and taking away the only physical thing I had left of my grandma, it makes me so sad every time I think of it wnf me not having that 4/10 anymore. But just my luck Ig, I wouldn't have any luck if not for bad luck. But it takes a real pos to give away a gun you know is someone's only item they have left from their deceased grandmother, and you give it away anyways tbh, like a true pos move. Sorry, Ik the last paragraph or two have nothing to do with the video, but once I brought up my old shotgun, it brought back all of those great and then horrible memories I tried to forget due to not having what was given to me by my grandma to remember her by, it just makes me so fkn mad man frfr, and the bad part is, he knew what it was and what it meant to me tbh.

[@blem7122]

So the slug is the actual projectile that comes out Of a shotgun shell Inside of that is a plug that separates the plug from the black powder when it fires

[@Skoomadict]

A slug is a solid mass of lead shot from a shotgun shell. A plug is the wadding keeping the shot separated from the powder.

[@roysimmsjr.6982]

From slugs, buckshot, and birdshot there is a plastic plug that separates the powder from the projectile(s). This plug will part ways with the projectile after leaving the barrel; it can travel several score yards, or hit the target if the target is close, though it is light weight.
