You really want to hold this one with two hands. No not that one above. . . this one!

(This is just a screenshot and it won't play as a video.)

My buddy bought this Magnum Research .45-70 Winchester. This is the muzzle flash in the daytime! imagine what this thing would look like at night.

If you look carefully you will see that there are two flash cones, one above the other, because the gun rose as it was emitting the fire and it ignited twice in the space of one video frame.

I believe it's because there is so much unburned powder in a barrel that short thst a pressure wave travels back towards the firing pin igniting unburned powder in the gun, that shoots out again, well behind the bullet that's already left.
