Item #: SCP-XXX

Object Class: Safe Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXX is to be kept in a standard locker in Site XXX. Outside of testing, SCP-XXX is to be fitted with a standard trigger guard and a standard muzzle plug. All personnel working with SCP-XXX are to be trained in standard firearms safety procedures. During testing, personnel handling SCP-XXX are to wear standard protective gloves.

As expended ammunition shows no anomalous properties, expended testing matter will be disposed into the incinerator.

Description: SCP-XXX is an 18th century French blunderbuss bearing the [REDACTED] insignia on it's barrel with the words inlay with similar material on the stock saying : "A Mother's Touch Makes Everything Better".

Any ammunition bigger than a traditional musket ball causes the bullet chamber to grow. SCP-XXX is able to grow its muzzle to an average of 80-cm (31-in) and will keep the size as long as there's ammunition inside of it. The muzzle will recede back to its normal size whenever the ammunition is removed. SCP-XXX is able to fire an hour's worth of any ammunition that is inserted into the bullet chamber, excluding any rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs).

Discovery: SCP-XXX was found at a French Revolutionary war reenactment event in ████, France where the holder (based off the interview prior to the containment of SCP-XX) stated he believed it to be a prop. after seeing it discharging and accidentally killed five bystanders and injured two others. All attendees were given amnesiacs after questioning and after the containment of SCP-XXX by MTF ████.

+ Show Addenda - Hide Addenda Addendum 01: Incident 01 After a few months of containing SCP-XXX, a D-Class staff assigned to SCP-XXX was found in their cell dead overnight with ████ slowly exiting their mouth. During the investigation, there was a spent 2.3-mm (.092-in) shell from an experiment done the previous day in their room. From this point further, any spent ammunition (excluding blunderbuss and similar ammunition) will be considered SCP-XXX-01, any more information will be given out after a few trials to assess the anomalous effects of the spent ammunition. Any staff that is assigned to SCP-XXX for janitorial reasons must now wear quad-layered gloves as they clean and will be then assessed for any symptoms seen with the aforementioned staff. Any staff found with similar symptoms will be quarantined and observed for further research.All SCP-XXX-1 instances are to be stored in a tri-layered safe after any authorized testing. Addendum 02: Incident 02 After hearing of the incident dealing with D-████ on 4/5/20██ putting their ring finger inside of the object's muzzle, which led to D-████ being found screaming with their ring finger removed, it is now required for all staff assigned to SCP-XXX to wear gloves or some form of protective glove-wear as a precaution. After D-█████ was taken to the hospital wing, SCP-XXX was found firing rounds of flesh covered in ████. Addendum 03: Analysis 01 After the tests done related to SCP-XXX-01 ,it is safe to say that I am willing to suggest that SCP-XXX to be re-classed as Euclid. And to also suggest that the article of SCP-XXX to be updated as well in order to ensure any potential losses of lives to be lowered. -Dr. Greenwood

Security Clearance Adequate: Access Authorized

After some more tests of the spent casings in the past month the words engraved on SCP-XXX, I would like to make a hypothesis that it is something that SCP-XXX detects inside of the metal used. This was supported after doing a test between a 2.3 mm bullet made of lead and another made out of iron (the same material of the one that killed D-████ ). The results showed that all the spent shells of iron showed signs of gamma radiation and yet, the lead casings did not give off any form of radiation. Me and my fellow colleagues then took the liberty of creating 2.3 shells of all known transitional, alkaline,etc metals and found that all the transitional metals have shown to have the same radiation while every other metal, did not have any trace of this radiation. This has lead me to send a letter to O-5 Overseer █████ about this. But I request that no mention of this made into any updates of the article relating to this object due to I would like to as I said before talk to O-5 Overseer █████ about this and see what ███ wants us to do. -Dr. Greenwood
