No, the barrel us obstructed. A real bullet would shatter it, but a real gun will also fire blanks.


Can Blank ammo work on a real gun?

It can.


Can you make a blank gun fire real bullets?

The question is not if you can do it, it is whether it can be done SAFELY- and without going to prison. Guns made ONLY to fire blanks must be designed and constructed so that they cannot fire "ball"- or real- ammunition. Many are constructed of inferior metals, since they do not need to contain the high forces generated when firing ball ammo. These are very likely to disintegrate without warning, causing injury from flying metal bits. Convert a blank gun to something that can fire ball ammo, but does not have a rifled barrel, and you have just built a "short barreled shotgun". Or at best, an "any other weapon". Under US law, these must be registered with the BATFE before building- penalty is 10 years prison if you don't. While actual firearms CAN fire both blanks and ball ammo, a blank gun cannot safely do so.

What is an airgun?

An air gun is usually a replica of a real firearm that is powered by air or C02 that is used to fire a projectile (Pellet or BB). Only air or C02 is used in the air gun. Whereas a firearm uses gunpowder to fire a bullet. Air guns are powerful but not a powerful as a real firearm.


What if you change the barrel on a blank gun then will it fire real bullets?

This soundsllike one of those 'circumventing authority' questions. I'm assuming you have a blank gun and you want a 'real' one, but you aren't old enough to buy your own (or they are illegal where you live). I'd have to see the weapon, or at least know what it is in order to answer that, but generally speaking the answer is NO. The barrel only delivers the ammo downrange. The CHAMBER is the thing you have to worry about, because that is where the cartridge undergoes its greatest pressure. In a revolver, for instance, the drum that holds the shells acts as the chamber for each shell. The chamber is what is built strong enough to contain the explosion of the powder, not the barrel. The barrel only provides a path for the direction the bullet travels. On several of my weapons I could totally remove the barrel and the weapon would still fire. A blank gun is designed to fire a low-pressure round, and putting a full-pressure round in it would literally cause it to explode when you fired it.I had a Charter Arms Off-Duty .38 Special, and I couldn't even put +P ammo in it (that's just ammo with a little more powder in it for more oomph). So if a real, legit gun can't even handle extra-power ammo, think about what a blank gun would do. You'll blow your hand off.

Can a air soft gun be modified to fire real bullet or lead pellet?

Setting aside how DANGEROUS and IRRESPONSIBLE this would be, for the amount of money it would cost to do it safely (if that's possible), you could buy a real firearm
