The Nagant M1895 might make for an interesting bullpup conversion. The cylinder moves forward when the gun is cocked, to close the gap between the cylinder and the barrel, providing a boost to the muzzle velocity of the bullet and allowing the weapon to be suppressed.

[@tenofprime]

Yep, the only safe way to do it would be a gas seal design. There is a reason those never took off commercially, heavy triggers for minimal benefits when you can just get a simiauto.

[@ethantaillefer-meyn6535]

Cherubin Luigi revolver

[@davidschneider9145]

The only problem is that bullpups have notoriously bad triggers. The Nagant revolver‘s design makes it have an incredibly heavy and awful trigger (at least in double-action). So while it is possible, you‘re going to need very strong fingers and very low standards for accuracy to not get upset

[@julianpobog-pagowski5662]

13:35 Nagant revolver model 1895 had a system where the cylinder was in contact with the barrel when shooting and thanks to the ammunition in which the bullet was hidden in the case, the gaps were sealed even more. It was the only mass-produced revolver to which a silencer could be effectively installed. The KGB and NKVD were eager to use it and its shortened version. so in theory you could turn him into a bullpup without much risk of hurting yourself

Hey Brandon, so .50 BMG has, on the upper end, 20,000 Joules of Muzzle energy. Using that, we can plug the weight of a .17 HMR and the Kinetic energy .50 BMG produces into the velocity equation and we get roughly 20,500 feet/second which is Mach 18.2 at sea level!

[@yapflipthegrunt4687]

"You can ignore air resistance for this problem."

[@JustAJosuke]

Yeah, that equates to about 1.72 Mach F*cks

[@bigboss-tl2xr]

I wonder if a little chunk of lead could actually take that kind of velocity without disintegrating?

[@richardhanck972]

The major problem with this is that you have to have a barrel long and strong enough (not to mention a pressure source high enough) to apply that energy to the HMR bullet. I am winging this, assuming constant chamber pressures with round numbers and no calculus, so... grain of salt. We first need the force driving a .50BMG and the barrel time (which can both be calculated using figures pulled from the .50BMG Wiki). A 800 gr., 20,000J round fired from a 45" test barrel has a muzzle velocity of roughly 2,900 feet per second. Since that barrel is 3.75 feet long, and during a constant acceleration takes twice the amount of time to traverse that distance as it would at the final velocity, therefore the round spends ~2.586 _milliseconds_ in the barrel. If we assume a similar strength of barrel and breech construction, we can assume a similar pressure driving both rounds. So assuming the same, and constant, chamber pressure, therefore the force per area on the rounds are equal. A .50BMG has a base area of .2 sq inches. A .17 HMR has an area of 0.023 sq inches. Call the BMG 8.7 times the area of the HMR. This means you have (1/8.7) times the force on the BMG acting on the much lighter HMR bullet. The mass of the BMG was 800gr. The mass of an HMR is 20gr. , with h representing HMR and b representing BMG: F = MA ==> A = F/M Fh = Fb/8.7 Mh = Mb/40 Ah = Fh/Mh Ab = 40Fh / 8.7Mh ==> Ab = ~4.6 Ah So the acceleration of the HMR round is about 4.6 times that of the BMG round at the same chamber pressure. A = dV / dT (oops, I said no calculus...) A = Vf/T [Final Velocity / time] Ah = 4.6(3.75 ft / 2.586 ms) = 4.6(1,450.1 ft/sec^2) = 6,670.5 ft/sec^2 Now Vf / A = T So our final velocity of 20,500 ft/sec divided by our calculated acceleration is a barrel time at .50BMG chamber pressure of... by all that's holy... 3.073 *_seconds_* or a barrel _approximately_ 61,500 feet (or 14.72 miles) long... The burning of the powder probably doesn't last long enough. To get chamber pressure high enough to accelerate the round fast enough to even be feasable would require chamber walls at least an order of magnitude (I'm thinking more likely closer to two orders) greater than standard BMG breach thicknesses... and if your BMG breech walls are a minimum .75" thick, that means you're going to need walls betwen 7.5 and 75 inches thick for this stupidly-high-velocity HMR abomination. But that's really beyond my scope of knowledge, but if you would like to learn how to calculate solutions to problems like this, look up Sonoran Desert In... wait a minute, I don't have a sponsorship.

12:50 I don't want to be a nerd but i will. Brandon, I'm sure that you're familiar with the gas-seal revolvers, such as the nagant revolver. but to other readers, it's a revolver that has bullets completely hidden in the casing and the entire cylinder is pushed forward when shooting wich makes it safe for the other hand if you'd like to hold it as you shown in the video. I believe that it would work for the bullpup revolver.

[@n0k148]

8:07 some german AT rifles during WW2 actually used a similar cartridge, 7.92x94 on the panzerbuchse 38 and 39. They are real interesting designs, firstly the stupid cartridge and they also had a sliding breech block mechanism, like on cannons

1:40 there was a type of gun ,called volley rifle,that was basically that. The two most notable example were the Pieper Volley Rifle, and the Harrington. They shot 7 22 cal shot in the first,and 19 12 cal shot in the second.

12:30 The red Iron Cross in that one is not really an iron cross but a Malta Cross. It is the symbol used by a brazilian football team "Vasco da Gama". So this is some football hooligan's gun. Also, the name on the mag is the portuguese version of "Solomon".

The ironic thing about that "hunting rifles" that were cut in half is that the bolt actions were all Marlin 22 rifles. Yes the super deadly 22lr. Well 22 is a bigger number then 9, an 9mm blows the lungs out of the body. So super deadly.

[@ThomasAdsumus]

That "krink" at 12:22 is 100% from Rio de Janeiro! "Salomão" (Solomon) is probably the name of the drug dealer who have been given the rifle, the "iron cross" is actually a Maltese cross from "Clube de Regatas Vasco da Gama ", a football team from Rio, which indicates that whoever took this picture is most likely afiliated with the "third command", since "Red Comand" gang always carries "Flamengo" symbols (another football team from Rio).
