What happens if you shoot a bomb?
Nothing, unless your bullet makes sparks on the ground, or the bomb casing. Or unless it is an impact bomb. But if it is a nuclear bomb, then nothing really will happen.
It depends a great deal on the type of bomb and what it is designed to do. In the majority of cases, nothing. In some, it could set the bomb off, particularly if it is crude and not well made. In the case of a nuclear bomb, chances are that nothing would occur, or you would have what is known as a secondary explosion, where there is a bang and the radioactive material is spread around, but it wouldn't result in a nuclear explosion.
What is the dangerous explosives?
All explosives are potentially dangerous if the correct precautions are not taken.
There have been treaties adopted to halt the placement in landmines. However, there will be nations that will not stop using them. They are inexpensive, low tech. There are new devlopments in technology to locate them- problem is getting the technology to where it is needed.

What the M18 claymores uses in the field are?
The M18A1 Claymore is used primarily as a defensive weapon. It is normally command detonated (a soldier makes it explode at the moment he wants it to explode) It may be used as part of a defensive perimeter, along with wire and other obstacles. It has the effect of a giant shotgun, firing steel pellets in a pattern to its front.
The Claymore may also be used in offensive operations, such as an ambush. During hours of darkness, firing a rifle marks the location of the shooter, but detonating a Claymore does not. They have been used to initiate an ambush, causing the first casualties, and signaling other members of the ambush to open fire.
They have also been used as part of a "mechanical ambush", or mine field. In this instance, the command detonation is replaced by a tripwire detonator, and does not require personnel to be present for the mine to fire. When used in this fashion, US doctrine requires that the Claymores so employed by recorded as a minefield.

What does a c4 bomb look like?
C4 is made up of explosives, plastic binder, plasticizer and usually marker or odorizing taggant chemicals such as 2,3-dimethyl-2,3-dinitrobutane (DMDNB) to help detect the explosive and identify its source.
The explosive in C4 is RDX (cyclonite or cyclotrimethylene trinitramine), which makes up around 91% of C4 by mass. The plasticizer is diethylhexyl (5.3%)
or dioctyl sebacate and the binder is usually polyisobutylene (2.1%). Another plasticizer used is dioctyl adipate (DOA). A small amount of SAE 10 non-detergent motor oil (1.6%) is also added.
C4 is manufactured by combining the noted ingredients with binder dissolved in a solvent. The solvent is then evaporated and the mixture dried and filtered. The final material is an off-white solid with a texture similar to modelling clay.
