I dont think it was a special Glock. I believe it was a standard firearm, I could be wrong but I think their plan was to fire a normal gun. They did mention it will only fire once because the casing wont eject properly.WNallG30 wrote:Speaking of Mythbusters. I saw it the other night when that episode came on. They were having a short marathon. They also did a piece on firing guns underwater. They mentioned there were a couple of guns, including the Glock 17 that can be fired underwater. They failed to mention that yes, a Glock 17 can be fired underwater, but it's a specially modified from the factory gun and should never ever be done. They also didn't mention that if you were underwater and tried to fire a gun, it would probably blow out your eardrums because of the pressure. I know they put the disclaimer at the beginning of the show, but I was pretty disappointed that they didn't remind viewers how dangerous that particular experiment was.
