Auto Airbag for Backblast Containmen

Re: Auto Airbag for Backblast Containmen

Never "pondered" that one.....we did play with a deployed Del Sol airbag in Autobody in High School......called it Marsha! Marsha! Marsha!

Are you planing on using an "airbag deployment" to suppress the blast? Or a "deployed airbag".....like a condom that was too big?

It's called a suppressor.

It all started with shooting out of a gun port.
Then it went to shooting out of a tent.
Then it went to shooting out of a bivy bag.
Then it went to shooting out of piece of one foot foam out of the bag.
Then it went to shooting out of a nomex firefighters survival tent.
Some testing was done with M80's in a bag.


The end game seems to approach a soft, flexible, fire resistant cloth tube gun case with two hose clamps and a $200 stamp. To deploy, unzip and clamp the front just ahead of the muzzle break. Unzip the back and clamp it in front of the scope. The remaining volumn contains the back blast and the dust signature.
