  • A Basic Firearm Tutorial by John Kraemer, F-ABMDI April 2009
    A Basic Firearm Tutorial By John Kraemer, F-ABMDI April 2009 Statistics for Firearm-Related Deaths According to a 2005 study conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there were almost 31, 000 firearm‐related deaths within the United States. Of the 31, 000 deaths, 55% of those deaths were certified as suicides, 40% certified as homicides, 3% certified as accidents, and the remaining 2% were certified as undetermined. A previous study by the CDC covering the years 1993 to 1998 also found that most firearm‐related deaths were again caused by self‐inflicted acts and men and individuals between the ages of 15 and 34 comprised a majority of those firearm‐related deaths. Every medical examiner or coroner’s office across the country has investigated a firearm‐ related death. Depending on your jurisdiction, these types of deaths may comprise a large portion of your caseload or a small portion. Regardless of the number of firearm‐related deaths your office investigates, every medicolegal death investigator must be knowledgeable in the safe handling of firearms, basic ballistics terminology and the parts of a particular firearm, whether it be a semi‐automatic handgun, revolver, shotgun or rifle. General Safety Practices The safe approach to and subsequent handling of firearms is your personal responsibility. Safety is the number one priority when handling such weapons. At any death scene involving a firearm, the death investigator MUST ALWAYS ASSUME THE FIREARM IS LOADED! Most accidental discharges of a firearm are the result of not following safe gun handling practices and failure to use common sense.

  • Winchester Firearms Exports to France in World War I
    ASAC_Vol106_04-Carrick_120012.qxd 2/2/13 2:49 PM Page 19 Winchester Firearms Exports to France in World War I By Michael F. Carrick It is a little-known fact that the Winchester Arms Company supplied 15,100 Model 1894 .30-30 carbines to the French Army in 1914. 1 They also supplied a significant num- ber of models 1907 and 1910 to the French Aeronautics Division and a quantity of Model 1903 .22 W.A.R. semiauto- matic rifles for training (Figure 1). In this article, I discuss the contract for the Model 1894 carbines and leave the others for another time. Perhaps one of the reasons that we do not see too much about this sale of 15,100 carbines and 15.1 million rounds of full metal jacket cartridges2 to France is that Winchester actually sold the lot to the Remington Arms Company. The contract was dated September 22, 1914. Sifting through Winchester factory records in the McCracken Research Library in Cody, Wyoming, for this transaction, I finally found the record of sales to the Remington Arms Company. I believe that Remington must have had an exclusive contract to supply arms and ammunition to the Government of France. Figure 1. The Winchester rifle (Model 1894 Carbine, .30 WCF, French Military Contract 9-22-1914) with red circles around swivels. Perhaps the Winchester representa- tives did not want to brag that they had sold a large order to Remington, and Remington representatives did not want to brag that they had sold an order of Winchesters; therefore, there would have been little publicity.

  • Last of the Classic Lever Actions by Rob Kassab & Brad Dunbar
    Winchester Model 1895 - Last of The Classic Lever Actions By Rob Kassab & Brad Dunbar The title of this excellent new book by Kassab and Dunbar says it all; the Model 1895 Winchester was really the last of the classic lever-action rifles. The 1895 was indeed a “transition” firearm that saw big changes in the firearms world and had a successful career not only in America but all over the world. Chamberings in the Model ’95 ran the gamut from black-powder cartridges to smokeless, high-velocity rounds. If I’ve piqued your interest in learning more about the Winchester Model 1895, then you are in luck. This new book by Rob Kassab and Brad Dunbar will answer every question you could have about the rifle. I thought I was pretty well-versed on 1895s but found out that I merely knew enough to be dangerous. There is much more to the ’95 Winchester story than I would have imagined. Fortunately, Kassab and Dunbar have done an excellent job in telling that story. From the genius of John Browning and William Mason to standardized and custom production at Winchester, reloading tools, military contracts, accoutrements such as slings and bayonets, and of course, the Theodore Roosevelt connection . all are covered in this comprehensive book. My own interest in Model 1895s has always centered around the musket contract that was done with Russia for the first World War. The ’95 was one of the very few lever-action rifles to serve in a major conflict when the world had almost universally gone to bolt-action rifles for their armies.

  • Lever Action Shotgun Re-Categorisation
    FIREARMS REGISTRY Transitional Arrangements - Lever Action Shotgun Re-Categorisation This FACT sheet provides information regarding the transitional arrangements for the Lever Action Shotgun - Re-Categorisation What are the amendments to the re-categorisation of the Lever Action Shotgun? The Firearms and Weapons Legislation Amendment Bill 2017, which recently passed the NSW Parliament amends the Firearms Act 1996 to provide for the updated National Firearms Agreement (NFA). The categorisation of lever action shotguns has changed in the NFA, and amendments in this bill reflect the final, nationally endorsed, NFA. These changes will commence on 1 November 2017. Currently, all lever action shotguns are classified as Category A firearms. The legislation will re-categorise lever action shotguns as follows: * Category B - Lever action shotguns with a magazine capacity of no more than five rounds. * Category D - Lever action shotguns with a magazine capacity of more than five rounds. Licence holders who own a lever action shotgun/s prior to the commencement of the legislative amendment will be authorised to retain possession of their firearm/s. The transitional arrangements specify that lever action shotguns with a magazine capacity of more than five rounds are subject to grandfathering provisions. The grandfathering provisions apply only for the particular lever-action shotgun registered to the person, and only while that shotgun remains registered in their name. Grandfathering will apply only to current legitimate firearms licence holders, not to those with merely a Permit to Acquire for a lever action shotgun. The following arrangements will occur to accommodate each circumstance. What if I own a lever action shotgun that has now been re-categorised as a Category B firearm (magazine capacity of five rounds or less)? If you are the holder of a Category B firearms licence then the firearm will be transitioned to your Category B firearms licence.

  • Lever Action Rifle and Long Range Pistol Silhouette Match
    Lever Action Rifle and Long Range Pistol Silhouette Match What: Silhouette competition – knocking steel targets off stands – much more fun that poking holes in paper! Bang! – Clang! – Thud! – Repeat! What better way to spend a day at the range?! When: The first Sunday of each month, South Bay Rod and Gun Club hosts a lever action rifle and long range pistol silhouette match. Setup starts at 7:45 AM and the match is usually completed by 1:00 PM. Where: Range 6, aka the Main Range Who: Match Director Ryan King, 619-888-7667 Course of Fire: 40 shots total, 10 each at steel silhouette targets at distances of 50, 100, 150, and 200 yards. There are chickens (8”x8”) at 50 yards, pigs (20”x14”) at 100 yards, turkeys (16”x23”) at 150 yards, and rams (30”x24”) at 200 yards. One point is scored for each target knocked over, up to 40 possible. The course of fire is the same for lever action rifle and pistols. The targets are the full sized NRA approved targets. There is a 15-20 minute practice session before the match starts. Qualifying rifles: This match is not NRA sanctioned but adheres closely to the qualifications for the NRA Center Fire Lever Action Match. Rifles need to be centerfire, lever action, with an exposed hammer, and a tubular magazine. Only iron sights are allowed; barrel mounted or aperture mounted on the receiver or tang. Typical guns are Marlin models 1893, 1894 or 336; Winchester 1886, 92 or 94; and replicas thereof. Caliber choices can range from 357 Magnum to 45-70, but the classic 30-30 works just fine, as do its cousins the 32 Special, and 38-55.
