They show you badly deformed bb Peacemaker barrels where naughty bbs have got out of line on entry and in one case punched a hole through the barrel.

They blame poor build and thin barrels.

I blame tinkering with new guns and bad re assembly but then I'm an old cynic.
Interesting stuff thanks, I had a look at a few and the one where the guy shows two guns needing three clicks to cock fully and align the barrel and another gun that needed four clicks was telling.
The fact that the gun would fire when the chamber was at one of the less than fully cocked positions explains the denting in the forcing cone.
The bit I found unbelievable was that once into the thick metal forcing cone, the bb could about an inch into the barrel - exit sideways!
This seems unlikely without another external factor at play because it would seem to defy the laws of physics which dictate that once a body is in motion it continues on it's path in a straight line unless acted on by another force. In this case, it had made it through the forcing cone and into the barrel and once in there it's not got a lot of room to bounce around - so unless you try to stop it, its going to come out of the open end!
