Cracking a Safe with a Shotgun

Can a Safe hold up against a Shotgun?

Taofledermaus has just the improvised shotgun shell to try on this tough target.

This test of wax slugs is against an old safe. Can an old safe be penetrated by these wax slugs? Well, a full can of beer is what is being protected inside of this safe.

Watch as a shotgun loaded with wax slugs tries to strong arm it. At first try the rounds went through but missed the beer can inside the gun safe. Second try the rounds went through the safe and destroyed the beer can. The damage is quite impressive to say the least.

Matt the shooter used a Mossberg 590 12 ga shotgun with wax slugs, see the results here.

At least he’s shooting in a “safe” direction.

The amount of money you spend on a safe is directly proportional to the skill level required to crack it. They all can be cracked, but the expensive ones only are vulnerable to a better class of thief. Give me a magnesium burning bar and I can get into any safe made that wasn’t so massive that the safe had to be emplaced first, then the room built around it.

“Nothing like a shooting range in the middle of a residential neighborhood”

Looks like a farm to me. You must live on the moon.
