@cbspittsburgh: A fire ripped apart a home on Friday, July 25, east of #Pittsburgh, igniting thousands of bullets inside. Shots rang out as flames poured out of the home in Vandergrift, #Pennsylvania — it was the sounds of the 20,000 rounds of ammo stored inside. "It was constant pops," next-door neighbor Don Cocco said. Fire crews attacked the blaze from the outside for about 30 minutes until they knew all the ammo had exploded. The bullets traveled far, with some shell casings found about a half a block away.

Bullets don’t fly from discharge in a fire the case splits open the whole box will be laying there until you pick them up then the bullet falls out of the case

Would yall relax. Most people aren’t firearms experts or even remotely aware of these things. Like do you wanna go stand in a burning building filled with explosive elements?

that's definitely not what happened. without a chamber and barrel those rounds aren't going anywhere. I'm pretty sure it just rips the casings apart at the neck.

They aren't going anywhere. The bullets are heavier than the casing so they go nearly nowhere

in all reality the bullets don't go flying like the movies make look like they do. they pop n fling a little ways n don't have much power. but that would still be wild to watch
