Over-Penetration Case Study

The ammunitions are there for the dangerous war and defending our nation, but the most important one is the bullets and cannon balls, their hand crafted by men and women package the bullets, and then shipped the bullets and cannon balls to Union and Confederate troops because without them, the war will never end and chaos will be all over the united states.

with a short barrel (Shields,1981). This is because it’s extremely lethal and is so easily concealed.

A few years of development and a patent later, the minie` ball was ready for combat. In the 1850's, James H. Burton, a master of arms, made a few alterations such as slightly lengthening the bullet and thinning the walls of the hollow base. These alterations made the minie` ball much easier and cheaper to mass-produce; this is what was used by the blue and gray's out on the battlefields.

With at least 13 ambush shooting of law enforcement during the last few weeks, Minneapolis police are making changes to how they handle 911 calls. Ambush shootings of officers nationwide were up 50% in 2014 and today's numbers stand at a 70% increase over 2015! Washington-based National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund says ambush-style attacks are the leading method in the surging numbers of shooting deaths of law enforcement officers.

Just yesterday, there was a horrifying death, at Smyth’s Gun Shop in Plainfield. A woman by the name of Yvette Harvey killed herself with one of the guns on display at this shop. It was later discovered that the woman obtained the bullets at Walmart. This knowledge was achieved when investigators found a receipt for a box of ammunition in Yvette Harvey’s purse. The owner of the gun shop stated, “ She asked to see a pistol. She said she wanted to keep it in the house, for protection. Then, the woman asked if I had any literature on the model, and when I turned my back to find some, she shot herself with the gun.” Many might also recognize the woman's last name, which is Harvey. Just recently, the woman's daughter was the first killed at the

This weeks segment of material covers the common misconceptions associated with the wide variety of calibers and how to properly identify them. In the video it centered the some of the focus on .22 caliber and the common confusion that comes along with that caliber. At this point i’m going to cover in my own words where the most friction points come too.

Caliber sniper rifle to engage much larger targets as in vehicles, tanks, and can even be used to punch through walls in buildings. There are different grains of this bullet. The higher the grain, the more knockdown power

It is argued whether the phrase “assault rifle,” which came in the American lexicon around the 1980's,first originated as political ploy by firearm control advocates or as a marketing ploy by firearm retailers. What is for sure is that “assault weapon” is not a technical term, it was a phrase of art used by gun manufactures, or for the army. The nearest in those groups is the phrase “assault rifle” which is a military medium caliber, fired at the shoulder the shooter is allowed to select between semi-automatic which shoots one bullet per pull of the trigger and the other option is fully automatic which continues to fire bullets while the trigger is being pressed and there is a three shot fire also and it shoots 3 bullets each

Before Taser International, Jack Cover invented the TF-76 in the mid-1970s. It is now considered the primary source of the modern CED or CEW’s. The TF-76 originally fired two darts that were propelled by gunpowder to reach a target up to 15 feet away. The TF-76 was initially viewed as a dangerous weapon that was severely restricted resulting in a barrier of entry into many markets including that of the law enforcement agencies.

In the summer of 1976, a series of shootings began. They would terrify New York and earn even international press coverage. The perpetrator was dubbed the "The .44 Caliber Killer" after his weapon of choice.

During WWI, each country in the war used snipers to kill top priority targets. A sniper is a person in a hidden position to shoot at a planned target. Every country’s version of their snipers used different rifles. The U.S. used a rifle called the Springfield M1903 during WWI which was issued from 1905-1937. During the WWI era, sniper rifles were not renowned for their accuracy or their sophistication. The history of the sniper in America, goes all the way back to the revolutionary war. (Piazza, 2012).

Captain John Norton of the British 34th Regiment in 1832 invented the cylindro-conoidal bullet. This was a large step in the gun making industry. This is because it has a hollow base, the hollow base allows the bullet to expand mid-air causing a larger wound in the victim. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylindro-conoidal_bullet) This model was worked on by a man called Claude Minnie.

It is a quiet day in the last dying weeks of summer. The only sound is the wind through the high grass and the occasional croak of a frog. I’m standing in the middle of the path, my father stands behind my right shoulder holding the thrower. “Pull.”, I say as I raise my 12 gauge to my shoulder. Time seems to slows as I focus on the bright circular orange ceramic tile. I take a deep breath, and squeeze. With a flash and a roar the shotgun bucks in my hands and the scent of gunpowder fills my nose. Less than a second later, over my ringing ears, I hear the odd sound of breaking ceramic.
