Would not matter anyway. From what I learned, guns actually require the barrel to direct the force of the propellant forward, pushing it against the projectile, like a pressure tube. Without it, the projectile would just flop out while most of the force just vanishes as it expands out to the sides.

That kinda makes sense, but the initial explosion of the gun powder will still accelerate the bullet to potentially dangerous speeds
Way more dangerous to whoever is hammering them than to whoever is several meters away in front of it.
