That thing looks like it can cause some serious damage, even to things that are relatively well hardened.
Like, what would happen if a sniper fired that gun into the barrel of a T-80 that had an HE shell loaded?
It would be hard to get the angle just right to get the bullet all the way down the barrel without it impacting the sides of the barrel
Bullets are deflected along surprisingly sharp bends in a barrel (or any other pipe), so it would be sufficient to hit the tank gun muzzle roughly from the front, and it would probably hit a loaded projectile.
