The gun channels continue to prove they're better entertainers than these E-BEGGING faggots who constantly read "super chats."

Was he handloading? That's fucked if was shooting factory loads and the rifle self destructed like that.

Why is his left hand bandaged when it was his right hand on the trigger?

It looks like the left hand was sitting almost directly under where the rifle failed at the breech/bolt whereas you can see that the grip seems relatively fine in the slowmo.

It looks like a homemade rifle, but I might be wrong on this.

Nah, that's just a single shot .50BMG. They're much more economical to get into then any type of magazine fed. It looks like a Serbu, so it was around $1k as opposed to $2.5-3k starting for magazine fed.

Yeah, it is a Serbu.

But I guess that must have been a really bad incendiary round that he loaded it with.

Nah, incendiary burns. He was either handloading and put too high of a powder charge, possibly used the wrong type of powder accidentally, or there was a deficiency in manufacturing. Serbu better pucker up if that's the case. It's a screw breech gun which is a bit unusual, but I'm sure that's to keep cost down. The threads are beefy and it's going to be similar to a breech lock gun as far as distributing chamber pressure. It looks like a breech cap failure based on how it blows apart.
 
he said in the video it was slap rounds he had purchased from someone and that they weren't in production anymore. he makes it sound like the rounds were passed around often. he was also under the impression it was a military surplus round.

Yeah SLAPs were a sabot round. .30 cal sabot, tungsten I think, in a plastic sabot. There was also a .30 cal version, but it was not as common or at least I never saw it for sale as much. Turns out they were cancelled early in testing after sabot failure caused a catastrophic failure. So these were standard pressure rounds. I just looked at a powerpoint form General Dynamics and they were 51,000 cup. I'm not sure what max chamber pressure is for .50BMG, but some rounds definitely get up to 60,000.

With the info about the .30 cal failure. It's maybe conceivable that the plastic on the sabot of the .50 version has sufficiently degraded by this point to cause a problem. Plenty of .50 SLAP has been fired over the decades, but he may have gotten unlucky. The more likely scenario is manufacturer's a defect.
