Shitpost / Memes Shotgun Adapter

Got some left over 451 barrel blank, shotgun adapter it is, super easy lathe project that only takes couple hours. Grouping is surprisingly decent for its 1inch of rifling lol.

Any risk of shooting your barrel as it kicks?

If I understand correctly, most rifles the bullet makes contact with the barrel while it travels down, so if you make it with the correct material it shouldn’t be an issue…

It would for accuracy. And most barrels aren't hit with impacts from rifle rounds, they moreso guide the round while squeezing it tight, or in the case of a shotgun the impact is much softer/lighter.
