      Scott, the reason for the jams is the ammo, a shot gun is not really meant for auto fire gas operating systems, take the Typhoon 12 for example, brand new out of the box I fired multiple rounds at rapid fire with no stoppages or jams, the ammo I was using travels at a velocity of 1410 feet per second, it is important to use high velocity rounds in an auto loading shotgun, especially during the break in process, using lower velocity rounds will result in stoppages such as you experienced

      Sometimes things are unconventional for a reason.
      This was a bad idea, poorly executed.
      Making it rotate automatically is going to be difficult regardless, so it would be better to make that a manual function. But it hardly matters because making a gun that front-heavy is just dumb. Just use a detachable-mag gun and put a drum on it! Drum mags are terrible, but compared to the X-Rail they're models of reliability and practicality.

    When I saw how much the tube contraption thing was jiggling around in the slo-mo, I just knew that was the reason for it coming apart like it did. If they could have made it much stronger in that one point and not jiggle around as much, and not jam as much if possible, it would be a cool gun to use for fun range days. Definitely seems pretty heavy too

    • @themanformerlyknownascomme777
      @themanformerlyknownascomme777 5 місяців тому +2

      not only is it likely not made of the strongest parts. but it straight up isn't that secure to the weapon. Here we see why practically every tube extension accessory comes with an extra clip on thing to help secure it to the rest of the gun.

    • @AnthonyBennettKY
      @AnthonyBennettKY Місяць тому

      Agreed. Needs better construction and some way to secure the fore end much better. Eliminate the vibration/movement; even when rotating the magazine.
      With that said; previous videos (going back 3 to 11 years) show the XRail performing fine with no jams or vibrations. Could be an application/installation issue.
      At this point, Mossberg mag fed shotgun or an AR style with a drum mag is the best way to have over 13 rounds of 12 gauge. Especially, since Roth no longer manufactures the XRail.

    For those who don’t know, the XRail has been around for quite awhile. Not the most practical or reliable magazine extension option, but it’s not meant for hard use. It’s intended for extreme ”gamer gun” builds for hardcore competitive shooters, who are willing to accept something that’s finicky and requires dialing-in with specific ammo as a trade-off for massive capacity. Reloads on a tube-fed shotgun tend to be a major limiting factor for those competitions.

    The beetle does indeed put the punt gun to shame. Based on my back of the envelope calculations: an 1800lb Beetle is about 12,600,000 grains. Falling from a height of 30ft it should accelerate to approximately 44 fps, for around 54,160 ftlbs of energy on target. Now you'd have to divide by the area of impact to figure out how much each item received, but it's still devastating.
