Long story but sometimes I get offered free stuff from Amazon to test which, of course, is a good thing.
So now I have this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Portable-Manual-Nailer-Staplers-Woodworking/dp/B0D2D5XC37 - a "portable manual nailer / stapler"
It fires these nasty looking wasp stings:
And the videos look quite dramatic - the reviews talk about it being "as loud as a shotgun".

Now, obviously, the welding-forum approach is to just go outside, find some innocent-looking bricks, and fire the gun at it. And I'm generally up for that, but I must admit to being more than a little wary.
What is this? Do these nails have a mini explosive charge in the dangerous-looking cartridge? Are they even legal?
Hilariously, the manual begins with "It is prohibited that you fire to your body or another body"...
