    Realistically, the mechanism would jam. I doubt the hammer would fall, being squeezed hard against whatever structure supports it

    Interesting.

    Not the answer I'm looking for, but still interesting. Thanks for the information!

      And then they hit the emergency shutdown, which is for when people have a plate in their head and they're stuck to the side of the machine. That one causes all the liquid helium to be quenched, thus needing to be refilled.

      There is a slower shutdown that doesn't do that, but, you know, cops.

      Every detail of that story was worse than the last, and it's 100% on the cops.

      Edit: forgot another detail. The gun is probably magnetized now and might be unsuitable/unsafe for use anymore.

      A button worth $25,000 on the low end to refill+replace the magnet, a million on the high end if it needs total replacement. It calls to me when I sit with the mri techs. Looking like SpongeBob trying to not push it sitting in the back.

        My buddy once had an epic hydroponic set up going in his garage. One day the garage door went up for some reason. Guess someone saw it and called the cops. They went full on raid of his garage only to find some of the best fucking vegetables in the city. He said they were actually visibly upset that he only had veggies

          So, a moment of curiosity.

          If my theoretical pistol did get pulled into am MRI machine, stuck against it by the magnet, and I, for the purpose of scientific inquiry, pulled the trigger, should I expect the bullet to fire more or less as normal, to fire, but the bullet be pulled back to the machine, or for the bullet to not move, or not move more than an inch or so from the barrel?

          But to address your main question, most bullets are not magnetic. Some are, in which case idk how the mri would impact them. But most would fire as normal

                Worst that's happened to me is that I was detained and questioned by the cops while they investigated my "grow operation". I had some old school grow lights in my kitchen window for my window sill plants and a potted hibiscus outside on my deck.

                It's sad that the cops couldn't immediately tell the difference between hibiscus and weed nor were they aware that people can grow indoor house plants under those pink/purple fluorescent lights which for sure wouldn't be strong enough to grow marijuana to begin with.

                It's also funny that my neighbor at the time actually was growing weed on his front patio, and they never seemed to notice in the 5 or so years I lived next door.

                  Probably higly dependent on the specific gun/mechanism

                    They can dream up any nonsense and slap it on a warrant, so it’s not really that big of a hindrance to get one. They can get one for a different person at a different address, still come shoot you in your own home and walk away with a paid vacation.

                      Most modern pistols are striker fired not hammer fired.

                      I’d venture a guess nothing out of the ordinary happens thanks to lube and springs. Gun fires.

                        I guess it depends on the steel parts. I'm sure there are other magnets.

                        In any case, if the firing pin or hammer or anything in the trigger mechanism is steel, it's going to be difficult to move to actually fire.

                        Say the bullet has a steel tip or core though, and we are able to fire it. The force pulling that bullet is going to prevent the bullet from going much of anywhere. Let's pretend the barrel and firing chamber are frictionless and indestructible.the bullet will leave the gun, but immediately curve into the magnetic field, inevitably into the MRI itself, but likely not very far.

                        It would be pretty fun to watch though.

                          That's an implementation detail, not really relevant to my point.

                          I don't think you appreciate how powerful those magnets are. Any ferromagnetic object would be doing well to avoid binding up completely when held right up to the device

                            That's terrifying. Those stupid cops will kill your baby with a flashbang, shoot your dog and then murder you becauese you were holding the TV remote during their veggie raid.

                            Even if he really was growing some pot plants, it shouldn't even be a big deal.

                              This is because "The Drug War" is just a device for political persecution of the people that whoever is in power wants to harass or outright remove. It's the Nixon Playbook and it's not just Republicans who use it.

                                    LoL, this just reminded me of the movie "Shoot 'em Up" with Clive Owen's character being a stone cold badass while munching on carrots he grows in his garage.

                                    BTW, though it is a cartoonishly ridiculous action flick, "Shoot 'em Up" is a terrifically fun movie to watch.

                                      Happened not long ago that, for the same reason, police raided a tomography & XRay clinic. Guess what, an MRI needs serious power to work...
