They set a claymore off in SWAT with a pistol, so why not.

No. C4 requires heat and pressure in order to detonate.

I dont know. I think it would have to be lit first but then again an impact like that will generate some heat, dont know if its enough to detonate it. pop it wityh a tracer and you may get better results

Yeah, but you can set off Claymores in Delta Force: Black Hawk Down by shooting them too. So that's at least gotta be true

No you can shoot C-4, you can even set it on fire it won't set it off C-4 is a very stable explosive, the only thing that will set it off is a blasting cap, as C-4 requires a shockwave to go off, and a bullet will not produce nearly enough of a shockwave....

Uh, if C4 were sensitive to gunfire, why would they use it in a combat zone?
The real answer is not only no but hell no. It takes a special military blasting cap to set it off. Using a regular blasting cap that is suitable for civillian dynamite will only spray bits of C4 everywhere. |

That was NOT C4. It was a ketone peroxide. |
