General description This weapon can fire all types of 9- mm. round nose ammunition (I.C.I., Winchester, Sain, Beratta, German, etc.). It is of the blow back type, that is, it has no locking device, whereby in filing a cartridge, part of Ibe explosive force drives tlie breech block rearward. The firing pin is integral with Ike breech bloek and. is in the iona of a small projection in the cartridge recess. Provision is made for automatic and single shot firing, by means of a change ievex. The butt and barrel are readily detached from the casing, tliereby facilitating carrying. By raising the catch located on the front side of the magazine housing, the latter can be rotated to a downward position to Jacilitste stowage. A boa type magazine having a capacity of 32 rounds is CONTSNT* used, being inserted into the left Bids of the carbine and retained by a spring-loaded catch. «c, ruu Safety La ensured by cocking the breech block, and rotating the cocking handle anti-clockwise until it is engaged in the 1.

While there have been concerns raised by some about the M-4’s reliability and lethality, some studies suggest that the M-4 is performing well and is viewed favorably by users. The Army is undertaking both the M4 Carbine Improvement Program and the Individual Carbine Competition, the former to identify ways to improve the current weapon, and the latter to conduct an open competition among small arms manufacturers for a follow-on weapon. An integrated product team comprising representatives from the Infantry Center; the Armament, Research, Development, and Engineering Center; the Program Executive Office Soldier; and each of the armed services will assess proposed improvements to the M4. The proposal for the industry-wide competition is currently before the Joint Requirements Oversight Council, and with the anticipated approval, solicitation for industry submissions could begin this fall. It is expected, however, that a selection for a follow-on weapon will not occur before FY2013, and that fielding of a new weapon would take an additional three to four years. This report will be updated as events warrant. Congressional Research Service The

  • Thompson Brochure 9Th Edition.Indd
    9th Edition Own A Piece Of American History Thompson Submachine Gun General John T. Thompson, a graduate of West Point, began his research in 1915 for an automatic weapon to supply the American military. World War I was dragging on and casualties were mounting. Having served in the U.S. Army’s ordnance supplies and logistics, General Thompson understood that greater fi repower was needed to end the war. Thompson was driven to create a lightweight, fully automatic fi rearm that would be effective against the contemporary machine gun. His idea was “a one-man, hand held machine gun. A trench broom!” The fi rst shipment of Thompson prototypes arrived on the dock in New York for shipment to Europe on November 11, 1918 the day that the War ended. In 1919, Thompson directed Auto-Ordnance to modify the gun for nonmilitary use. The gun, classifi ed a “submachine gun” to denote a small, hand-held, fully automatic fi rearm chambered for pistol ammunition, was offi cially named the “Thompson submachine gun” to honor the man most responsible for its creation. With military and police sales low, Auto-Ordnance sold its submachine guns through every legal outlet it could. A Thompson submachine gun could be purchased either by mail order, or from the local hardware or sporting goods store. Trusted Companion for Troops It was, also, in the mid ‘20s that the Thompson submachine gun was adopted for service by an Dillinger’s Choice offi cial military branch of the government. The U.S. Coast Guard issued Thompsons to patrol While Auto-Ordnance was selling the Thompson submachine gun in the open market in the ‘20s, boats along the eastern seaboard.

  • The DIY STEN Gun
    The DIY STEN Gun Practical Scrap Metal Small Arms Vol.3 By Professor Parabellum Plans on pages 11 to 18 Introduction The DIY STEN Gun is a simplified 1:1 copy of the British STEN MKIII submachine gun. The main differences however include the number of components having been greatly reduced and it's overall construction made even cruder. Using the simple techniques described, the need for a milling machine or lathe is eliminated making it ideal for production in the home environment with very limited tools. For obvious legal reasons, the demonstration example pictured was built as a non-firing display replica. It's dummy barrel consists of a hardened steel spike welded and pinned in place at the chamber end and a separate solid front portion protruding from the barrel shroud for display. It's bolt is also inert with no firing pin. This document is for academic study purposes only. (Disassembled: Back plug, recoil spring, bolt, magazine, sear and trigger displayed) (Non-functioning dummy barrel present on display model) Tools & construction techniques A few very basic and inexpensive power tools can be used to simulate machining actions usually reserved for a milling machine. Using a cheap angle grinder the average hobbyist has the ability to perform speedy removal of steel using a variety of cutting and grinding discs. Rather than tediously using a hacksaw to cut steel sheet, an angle grinder fitted with a 1mm slitting disc will accurately cut a straight line through steel of any thickness in mere seconds. Fitted with a 2mm disc it can be used to easily 'sculpt' thick steel into any shape in a fraction of the time it takes to manually use a hand file.

  • Understanding Distance Shooting and the Type of Firearm from the Analysis
    Understanding distance shooting and the type of !rearm from the analysis of gunshot sounds Nikolaos E. Tsiatis Police Major Forensic Science Division of Hellenic Police, Athens, Greece Abstract In order to study gunshot sounds, experimental shootings were conducted in an open shooting range to record the sound of gunshots. The results were tabulated for a total of 168 gunshots. Shots were red using pistols, revolvers, submachine guns, ries and shotguns in dierent calibres from selected distances relative to the recording devices. Both a conventional sound level meter (SLM) and a measurement microphone were used. These were placed at selected points behind the shooting position and the sound of each shot was recorded. At the same time, the signal received by the microphone was transferred to a computer connected through an appropriate audio interface with a pre-amplier. The peak amplitude of the gunshot was calculated in the accepted engineering units (dB) of sound pressure level. The shortest distance for the recordings was 9.60 m and the furthest was 38.40 m. The experiment was carried out using the following calibres: 6.35 mm, 7.62 mm Tokarev, 7.65 mm, 9 mm Short, 9 mm Makarov, 9 mm Parabellum, .45 Auto, .22 LR, .32 S&W, .38 S&W, .38 Special, .357 Magnum, 7.62 mm Kalashnikov and 12 GA. A decrease of the peak amplitude, equivalent to the increasing of the distance, was observed as expected. Values appeared to follow the inverse square law. By analyzing a recorded gunshot sound it is possible to calculate the distance between that discharged rearm and the recording device.
