There are a few things we can't live without in Texas. Our music, our food and our guns. Well, this video was sweet music to my ears. Can an assault rifle cook bacon?

The U.S. Marine Corps took this question to heart and answered it with a video.

As the marine is wrapping bacon around the barrel of the gun, he says, "This is about as America as you can get right here". Then he proceeds to fire off many, many rounds. As the barrel heats up, he takes a whiff of the gun barrel, which probably smells AMAZING.

The he shoots more - eventually overcooking the bacon! The moral of the story is to be careful with the suppressor because it gets very hot.
