  • Humane Killing of Livestock Using Firearms
    Humane Killing of Livestock using Firearms This is the downloadable PDF version of the online guide. As such, some of the features are missing, including video footage and web links. The online version may be accessed from www.hsa.org.uk Introduction In all livestock production systems, no matter how well they are managed, there will be times when animals have to be humanely destroyed in order to protect their welfare. In most cases, these animals will be casualties which have not responded to treatment, or emergencies (animals with serious physical injuries or in acute, unrelievable pain). The latter may occur: on-farm; in transit; in markets, lairages or collection centres; or as a result of accidents on the public highway, at racecourses, shows or exhibitions. Used properly, firearms provide one of the quickest and most effective methods of humane killing of livestock. This publication has been written for all those, particularly veterinary surgeons, knackermen, slaughtermen, farm staff and police firearms officers, who may be directly or indirectly involved with the killing of large farm animals. It covers the humane destruction of cattle, sheep, pigs, deer, goats and horses, using humane killers, handguns, rifles and shotguns, discharged at close quarters, i.e. within 25 centimetres of the target – the animal’s head. All of these weapons fire free projectiles (single bullets or shot-charges) and their use is intended to kill the animals outright, with no need for further action on the part of the operator. This has definite advantages in certain situations where exsanguination or pithing would be undesirable or inappropriate.

  • Choke It… Or Don't
    Choke it… or don’t Many issues back in an article about patterning your shotgun, I briefly discussed chokes and how they regulate the size of the pattern. But, like most things in the sport shooting world, there is so much more to understand. Shotguns intended to shoot payloads of shot have a smooth bore. There is no rifling inside the barrel to impart spin on the payload and, interestingly, with a shot pattern would actually be counterproductive. The spin imparted by rifling would cause the shot pattern to disperse rapidly because of centrifugal force. Without spin the pattern will fly straight and will disperse more naturally by air resistance on the pellets, among other factors. This illustration helps to understand how choke works. Early on in the development of shotguns it was learned that tapering the bore diameter to some degree near the muzzle would regulate the size of the pattern at given distances. From the early 1800s on through to today the principle of applying constriction; choking the barrel down, remains relatively unchanged. It is interesting that the amount of constriction is actually quite minute. A 12 gauge shotgun, for instance, has a nominal bore diameter of 0.729 of an inch. Adding a taper down equivalent of just two hundreths of an inch changes the pattern from a 40 inch diameter at 25 yards, Cylinder choke, to a forty inch pattern at 35 yards, Modified choke. Standards were eventually established and remain to this day as illustrated in the table below. Where things get confusing is in the markings.

  • In the United States District Court for the District of New Hampshire
    IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEW HAMPSHIRE SIG SAUER, INC., ) Plaintiff ) ) v. ) Civil Action No. 1:14-cv-00147-PB ) B. TODD JONES, ) Defendant ) PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT AND REQUEST FOR ORAL ARGUMENT Plaintiff Sig Sauer, Inc. (“Sig Sauer”), by counsel, pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(a), hereby moves this Honorable Court for summary judgment. In support of this motion, Sig Sauer states as follows: 1. Sig Sauer has brought this action for judicial review under the Administrative Procedure Act and for declaratory relief regarding whether a device designed and intended for use as a muzzle brake to reduce recoil in the discharge of a rifle is, despite this intent, a “part intended only for use” in the assembly or fabrication of a firearm silencer in the meaning of 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(24). Based on the plain statutory text and controlling First Circuit precedent, United States v. Crooker, 608 F.3d 94 (1st Cir. 2010), Sig Sauer contends that the device does not come within that definition, and is not a silencer. Sig Sauer is entitled to judgment as a matter of law that its muzzle brake device is not a silencer. 2. Sig Sauer has designed a muzzle brake that reduces both recoil and muzzle rise when a shot is discharged. It does not silence, muffle, or diminish the report of a firearm, and Sig Sauer has repeatedly made clear that it is not a part intended only for use in assembly of a silencer. Defendant ATF does not dispute any of these facts.

  • Firearms Definitions
    FIREARMS DEFINITIONS Action: The part of a firearm that loads fires, and ejects a cartridge. Includes lever action, pump action, bolt action, and semi-automatic. The first three are found in weapons that fire a single shot. Firearms that can shoot multiple rounds ("repeaters") include all these types of actions, but only the semi- automatic does not require manual operation between rounds. A truly "automatic" action is found on a machine gun. AFTE: Association of Firearms and Tool Mark Examiners Ammunition: One or more loaded cartridges consisting of a primed case, propellant, and projectile(s). Three main types are rimfire, centerfire, and shotshell. Barrel: The metal tube through which a projectile or shot charge is fired. May be rifled or smooth. Base: 1. That portion of a cartridge case which contains the primer, usually called the head. 2. The rear portion of the bullet. Ballistics: The study of a projectile in motion. Often confused with Firearms Identification, there are three types of ballistics: Interior – within the firearm, Exterior - after the projectile leaves the barrel, and Terminal – impact on a target. Black Powder: The old form of gunpowder invented over a thousand years ago and consisting of nitrate, charcoal, and sulfur. Bolt: The locking and cartridge head supporting mechanism of some firearm designs that contains the firing pin, extractor, and sometimes the ejector. Bore: The inside of the barrel. "Smoothbore" weapons (typically shotguns) have no rifling. Most handguns and rifles have "rifling". Brass: A slang term sometimes used for fired cartridge cases. Breech: The end of the barrel attached to the action.
