A ballistic chronograph or gun chronograph is a measuring instrument used to measure the velocity of a projectile in flight, typically fired from a gun or other firearm. The instrument is often useful for tasks such as gauging the utility of a firearm or safety of non-lethal projectiles fired from items such as a paintball gun or BB gun .
PGFs are fully integrated systems consisting of a rifle, networked tracking scope, guided trigger and precision conventional ammunition based on standard caliber bolt action or semi-automatic rifles. Wireless connectivity allows PGFs to integrate with local and wide area networks to provide voice, video and data connectivity to remotely ...
See terminal ballistics for a fuller discussion of these effects. Bulletproof vests work by dissipating the bullet's energy in another way; the vest's material, usually Aramid ( Kevlar or Twaron ), works by presenting a series of material layers which catch the bullet and spread its imparted force over a larger area, hopefully bringing it to a ...
Except for the barrel locking mechanism the Remington Model 241 is very similar to the Browning SA-22. A close copy of the SA-22 was made by the Chinese company Norinco and imported into the US by Interarms as the Model ATD. The SA-22 was the first production semi-automatic rifle chambered in .22 LR caliber, [2] and is regarded as a classic ...
The Mossberg 702 Plinkster is a semi-automatic rifle chambered for the .22 Long Rifle cartridge, using 10- or 25-round box magazines. It has been sold under the Mossberg name since at least 2003. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It is a competitor to the Marlin 795 , the Ruger 10/22 , the Remington 597 , and the Mossberg Blaze .
