An evaluation of the effectiveness of nearly all commercial handgun bullets was made. As part of the study, each bullet was recovered after impacting and penetrating a tissue simulant target. This report is a supplement to the overall program methodology and results presented in a BRL Report entitled, 'Ammunition for Law Enforcement: Part I, Methodology for Evaluating Relative Stopping Power and Results.' Presented in this report are the photographs of bullets recovered after firing during this program. (Author).

Download or read book Gun Studies written by Jennifer Carlson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As cultural, social, political, and historical objects, guns are rich with complex and contested significance. What guns mean, why they matter, and what policies should be undertaken to regulate guns remain issues of vigorous scholarly and public debate. Gun Studies offers fresh research and original perspectives on the contentious issue of firearms in public life. Comprising global, interdisciplinary contributions, this insightful volume examines difficult and timely questions through the lens of: Social practice Marketing and commerce Critical theory Political conflict Public policy Criminology Questions explored include the evolution of American gun culture from recreation to self-protection; the changing dynamics of the pro-gun and pro-regulation movements; the deeply personal role of guns as sources of both injury and security; and the relationship between gun-wielding individuals, the state, and social order in the United States and abroad. In addition to introducing new research, Gun Studies presents reflections by senior scholars on what has been learned over the decades and how gun-related research has influenced public policy and everyday conversations. Offering provocative and often intimate perspectives on how guns influence individuals, social structures, and the state in both dramatic and nuanced ways, Gun Studies will appeal to students and researchers interested in fields such as sociology, political science, legal history, criminology, criminal justice, social policy, armaments industries, and violent crime. It will also appeal to policy makers and all others interested in and concerned about the use of guns.

Book excerpt: In 1973, the National Institute of Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice of the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration approved and funded a project, submitted by the Law Enforcement Standards Laboratory (LESL), National Bureau of Standards, to conduct a study of the terminal effects of police handgun ammunition. LESL contracted with the U.S. Army Ballistic Research Laboratories, Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, September, 1973, to conduct this study, to prepare a report of their findings and to draft guidelines for the selection of law enforcement service handgun ammunition. The full report entitled, "An Evaluation of Handgun Ammunition," is forthcoming as a publication of the National Institute of Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice. The full report will contain a complete description of a model for human incapacitation by handgun bullets, comparisons of presently available factory-loaded handgun cartridges according to their potential to incapacitate humans, to penetrate common materials, and to pose a hazard to bystanders. It will also contain lengthy tables of experimental data which are not included in this summary report.
Download or read book Military Countermeasures to Terrorism in the 1980s written by Thomas C. Tompkins and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. military services have devised defensive and offensive responses to terrorism: anti- and counterterrorism, respectively. This Note examines four elements needed for effective anti- and counterterrorism programs: effective intelligence programs, appropriate education and training, proper tactics and response techniques, and requisite equipment and devices. Both AT and CT forces have similar, albeit different, requirements in these four areas; these differences are discussed, as are some variances between the services' AT and CT programs. The Note concludes that terrorism may become a major form of armed conflict, and as such, will present increasingly serious challenges to the military. To counter this threat, the military must improve its intelligence functions, enhance its education and training programs, and more effectively control its limited assets by more use of joint service projects and better fiscal management.
