That is a shotgun shell loaded with allergy medicine. In the US many people reload their own shotgun shells. If you put rock salt instead of lead shot it is less-than-lethal...sorta. Some put in weirder stuff like nails, etc. Americans are funny like that.
Break into my home, you're gonna be crammed full of whatever I think is funny.
aka, "gunny bears"
The Taofledermaus channel on YouTube is a lovesong to that tenet for over 10 years.
just wait till you learn about cannons!
Own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as the founding fathers intended.
Just jam a tampon in there...
Thank you for explaining this. As a non-USian I had no idea what was going on.
Magnesium.
This you?
There's multiple youtube channels that are devoted entirely to loading shotguns with weird shit.
And I get innovation is fun and all but I've shot a lot of shotguns, and it almost doesn't matter what you put in it, it will leave a similar sized hole in whatever you shoot it at.
