  • 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.

  • The Governor's Guidelines for Firearms and Scare Devices for Protection
    THE GOVERNOR OF SVALBARD’s GUIDELINES FOR FIREARMS AND PROTECTION AND SCARING DEVICES AGAINST POLAR BEARS Adopted and enters into force on 20.07.2021 pursuant to Act No. 7 of 20 April,2018 relating to firearms, firearm accessories and ammunition (the Firearms Act) and Sections 5-7 and 6-11 of regulation No. 1452 of 7 May 2021 relating to firearms, firearm accessories and ammunition etc. (the Firearms Regulations). 1.Types of firearms 1.1 Rifle - Rifles are permitted to be acquired for use as polar bear protection in Svalbard pursuant to the Firearms Act and the Firearms Regulations - The person applying to acquire firearms for this purpose must meet the general requirements for conduct, sobriety and suitability in Section 15 of the Firearms Act, as well as document "sufficient proficiency" in the use of the firearm in question, cf. Section 5-7 of the Firearms Regulations. - Polar bear protection rifles must use ammunition of calibre 308 or 30.06. An expanding bullet shall be used where the projectile will weigh at least 10 grams and provide an estimated energy of at least 2,200 joule at a distance of 100 meters. Out of consideration for precision, range, stopping power, functionality and reliability in cold conditions, the Governor of Svalbard recommends the use of a rifle as primary protection against polar bears rather than other types of weapons. Acquisition permits for single-handed weapons will only be granted in exceptional cases, cf. Section 5-7 of the Firearms Regulations. Legal basis: Sections 15 to 17 of the Firearms Act, Sections 5-7 of the Firearms Regulations.

No part of this work may be reproduced in any form or by any means without the written permission of the author. 2 Introduction The British military services made considerable use of pistols during the Great War but it is evident that there is widespread ignorance and poor literary coverage of the weapons and their use. It is proposed to examine the pistol in British military service in the Great War, covering issue and use, technique and training, and procurement. Approximately half a million pistols were procured during the war, making it one of the numerically most widely issued weapons. A number of Corps, including the Machine Gun Corps, Tank Corps, and Royal Flying Corps were issued pistols as personal weapons, as well as extensive distribution in other arms. It is known that pistol use was widespread in trench warfare and critical on occasions. Decorations, including several Victoria Crosses, are recorded as being won by men using them aggressively.

  • Intro to Reloading
    Intro to Reloading This introductory manual will cover the basics of handloading ammunition. It will include information regarding necessary equipment, required materials, and the reloading process. This is not intended to be a comprehensive guide. Reloading is an in-depth, complex subject. This guide is a starting point for absolute beginners. Further information should be sought out for your specific calibers you are reloading, your specific brand and models of equipment, and your specific reloading components and materials. Follow all instructions that come with your equipment and materials. When someone who has never reloaded their own ammo looks into it, the needed equipment list is daunting and expensive. It is the intention of this guide to make reloading seem easy and accessible. Anyone, even children, can reload ammunition if shown the steps. My 8 year old is more than eager to help me de-prime, drop powder, or resize shells. Hopefully the knowledge presented here will increase your confidence when it comes to starting your reloading journey. [2] Socialistra.org Why Reload? Self Sufficiency: A decade ago, the generally accepted wisdom was “You will always be able to find .22lr. You will always be able to find .223. You will always be able to find .30-06. You will always be able to find XYZ.” After Sandy Hook in 2012, that all changed. For YEARS afterward, certain kinds of ammo were simply non-existent on store shelves. In this Time of Trump, it may not seem to make sense to spend $.10-$.25 more on each round you would make vs just buying the factory ammo.

  • Weapon Employment Zone (WEZ) Analysis of the Optimized 300 Winchester Magnum Vs 338 Lapua Magnum with Various Ammunition Types By: Bryan Litz, Applied Ballistics LLC
    Weapon Employment Zone (WEZ) Analysis of the Optimized 300 Winchester Magnum vs 338 Lapua Magnum With Various Ammunition Types By: Bryan Litz, Applied Ballistics LLC Background The specific intent of this WEZ report is to compare the ballistic performance of the 300 Winchester Magnum to the 338 Lapua Magnum with several available ammunition types. Understanding how these weapons compare in terms of hit percentage is important in the context of modern military applications. The recent upgrade of the M24 to the more modern XM-2010 platform would indicate that the 300 Win Mag is here to stay. [Ref 4] Ongoing activity with the Precision Sniper Rifle (PSR) development suggests that a platform based around the 338 Lapua Magnum class cartridge will be an option to consider someday as well. Understanding how these two options compare from a performance/hit percentage point of view, in combination with funding and logistics considerations will aid decisions regarding which platform to supply in various units and theaters. Ammo Types ABWEZDOC102 [Ref 2] provided a complete characterization of the 300 Win Mag, XM-2010 configuration including: A191, MK248 Mod1, and the Berger 230 OTM ammo types. Hit percentage was determined for these 3 rounds in high, medium, and low confidence environments. To avoid replicating these results, only the highest performing round (the Berger 230 OTM) will be considered here in comparison to 338 Lapua Mag 300SMK/ 250SMK/ performance.

  • 13055 Bullet Striations Kit
    ©2015 - v 4/15 13055 Bullet Striations Kit Teachers Manual INTRODUCTION A bullet or projectile fired from a rifled gun barrel is engraved with a mirror image of the gun’s rifling. Rifling is the process of making helical grooves in the barrel of a gun or firearm, which imparts a spin to a projectile around its long axis.This spin serves to gyroscopically stabilize the projectile, improving its aerodynamic stability and accuracy. Typically the rifled barrel contains one or more grooves that run down its length, giving it a crosssection resembling an internal gear- though it can also take the shape of a polygon, usually with rounded corners. Since the barrel is not circular in cross-section, it cannot be accurately described with a single diameter. Rifled bores may be described by the bore diameter (the diameter across the lands or high points in the rifling), or by groove diameter (the diameter across the grooves or low points in the rifling). Rifling is often described by its twist rate, which indicates the distance the bullet must travel to complete one full revolution, such as “1 turn in 10 inches” (1:10 inches), or “1 turn in 254 mm” (1:254 mm). A shorter rotational distance indicates a “faster” twist, meaning that for a given velocity the projectile will be rotating at a higher spin rate. A bullet is the projectile launched from a firearm upon its discharge. Modern bullets are usually conically shaped and made from lead or with a lead core surrounded by a copper alloy sheath, commonly called a jacket.

  • Reloading Guide for Lead-Free Frangible Pistol & Rifle Bullets
    Reloading Guide For Lead-Free Frangible Pistol & Rifle Bullets Shooting Steel Targets with SinterFire Bullets: SinterFire lead-free frangible bullets are made to be fired on steel targets, however there are some things the user must understand: SinterFire pistol bullets listed in this manual can be fired on ¼ inch AR 400 steel targets with no damage to the steel and reduced ricochet hazard to the shooter. SinterFire rifle bullets listed in this manual should only be fired on ¼ inch or thicker AR 500 steel. SinterFire bullets should travel no faster than 2,750 feet per second (fps) +/- 45 fps to avoid damage to AR 500 targets. SinterFire recommends 5 yards as the closest distance to shoot from when shooting steel targets. As results may vary from different firearms, SinterFire recommends that each user safely tests their loads before using in the field or training. Crimping Notice for SinterFire bullets: Due to the frangible nature of compressed powdered metal bullets, crimping is a delicate matter. Over-crimping will result in a compression and/or stress fracture at the case mouth that will cause the bullet to break off. Please follow the listed guidelines for proper crimping: Adjustment of the bell/expander die The case mouth should be belled/expanded the minimum amount to permit proper lead-in of the bullet. Bullet Seating SinterFire bullets are designed with a tapered length to accept a mild taper crimp at a pre- determined depth. They should always be loaded to the suggested Cartridge Over All Length. (COAL) Final Crimping (always taper crimp) Very little taper crimp is required, less than cast, jacketed or plated bullets.

  • Bullet Caliber and Type Categorization from Gunshot Wounds in Sus Scrofa (Linnaeus) Long Bone
    J Forensic Sci,2019 doi: 10.1111/1556-4029.14004 TECHNICAL NOTE Available online at: onlinelibrary.wiley.com ANTHROPOLOGY Bailey J. Henwood,1 B.Sc. (Hons); Tracy S. Oost,1 B.Sc. (Hons); and Scott I. Fairgrieve ,1 Ph.D. Bullet Caliber and Type Categorization from Gunshot Wounds in Sus Scrofa (Linnaeus) Long Bone ABSTRACT: Studies on ballistic trauma to the ribs and thorax, cranium, and long bones demonstrate the potential of obtaining a bullet cal- iber from an entrance wound. In order to validate prior research on caliber estimation in bone tissue and assess the viability of bullet type deter- mination based on the macroscopic evidence at the entrance wound, thirty fleshed pork (Sus scrofa) shoulders (humeri) were shot with either lead or copper jacketed bullets in one of three calibers; 0.22, 9 mm, or 0.38. Overall, our findings are consistent with previous research indicat- ing that calibers can be grouped into “small” and “large” categories. Bullet type, lead or copper jacket, can be ascertained based on cortical flaking and the analysis of materials deposited around the entry wound. The addition of this evidence holds value in cases where no firearm or ballistic evidence is recovered from a crime scene. KEYWORDS: forensic science, forensic anthropology, ballistics, gunshot wound, bullet caliber, bullet type Evidence of ballistic trauma to the ribs and thorax (1,2), cra- is the potential deposit of lead or copper to the bone from the nium (3–5), and long bones (6,7) can yield important investiga- bullet upon impact.
