to blow up a gun, normally the cylinder has to blow first. No gun is idiot proof. The Backpacker has a full size cylinder so is just as strong as a standard Blackhawk. Look at all the critters Stonecold has taken with his Backpacker. Go back a few days and he shows a deer he took with his Backpacker.
