How do bullets fire under water?
Quoting: BRIEF They dont... Ever seen that episode of Mythbusters.. The gun will fire under water because gunpowder stores oxygen in the charcoal...the bullet falls after just a few feet though. I've heard of some glocks that can fire under water safely, didn't know all guns would fire under water most guns will 'fire' underwater, its really more about how well sealed the ammo is. Some won't strike the pin hard enough, because of the extra resistance. The problem is that the bullets have way to much friction in the water, and tend to fragment at or near the muzzle. Another problem is pushing the water out of the barrel sometimes causing over-pressure issues. What you might be looking for is one of these. [ link to en.wikipedia.org]
