Download or read book Green Bullet written by Fouad Sabry and published by One Billion Knowledgeable. This book was released on 2022-08-12 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Is Green Bullet Green bullet, green ammunition, and green ammo are all slang names for a program run by the Department of Defense of the United States to eradicate the use of hazardous compounds in small weapons ammunition as well as in the manufacture of small arms ammunition. The removal of heavy metals, volatile organic compounds, and ozone-depleting chemicals from primers and projectiles was one of the first goals. Throughout the whole of the ammunition production process, these materials were regarded as a potential source of complications. At the production facilities, the materials caused hazardous wastes and pollutants to be produced, and at the shooting ranges, the usage of ammunition created contamination. The demilitarization process and the disposal of unneeded munitions were made difficult and costly by the potential health risks involved.

Download or read book Handbook of Handguns written by Jeffrey Strickland and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-04-25 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In light of the 2nd Amendment debates, shooting may become the national passtime. To act responsibly within the 2nd Amendment, means knowing how to properly "bear arms". Knowing involves understanding firearm types, firearm operation, ammunition, internal ballistics, and shooting. These require training, especially shooting. Whether you own or plan to own a handgun for recreation, competition, or self-defense, training is of the utmost importance. When you fire a projectile (bullet) from a firearm, you are responsible for where it goes. You need to understand how fast it travels, how far it can travel, and how accurate your firearm is in delivering the projectile to your intended target. Yes, bearing arms is a right, but not one to be taken lightly. Firing a handgun is a grave responsibility and must be done correctly and with a full understanding of all the components that make up "shooting".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Instant New York Times Bestseller #1 Los Angeles Times Bestseller #1 Indie Hardcover Nonfiction Bestseller A Publishers Weekly Best Nonfiction Book of 2021 Longlisted for the 2022 Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction Join "America’s funniest science writer" (Peter Carlson, Washington Post), Mary Roach, on an irresistible investigation into the unpredictable world where wildlife and humans meet. What’s to be done about a jaywalking moose? A bear caught breaking and entering? A murderous tree? Three hundred years ago, animals that broke the law would be assigned legal representation and put on trial. These days, as New York Times best-selling author Mary Roach discovers, the answers are best found not in jurisprudence but in science: the curious science of human-wildlife conflict, a discipline at the crossroads of human behavior and wildlife biology. Roach tags along with animal-attack forensics investigators, human-elephant conflict specialists, bear managers, and "danger tree" faller blasters. Intrepid as ever, she travels from leopard-terrorized hamlets in the Indian Himalaya to St. Peter’s Square in the early hours before the pope arrives for Easter Mass, when vandal gulls swoop in to destroy the elaborate floral display. She taste-tests rat bait, learns how to install a vulture effigy, and gets mugged by a macaque. Combining little-known forensic science and conservation genetics with a motley cast of laser scarecrows, langur impersonators, and trespassing squirrels, Roach reveals as much about humanity as about nature’s lawbreakers. When it comes to "problem" wildlife, she finds, humans are more often the problem—and the solution. Fascinating, witty, and humane, Fuzz offers hope for compassionate coexistence in our ever-expanding human habitat.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Is Precision Guided Firearm Long-range rifle systems known as precision guided weapons (PGFs) are meant to increase the accuracy of firing at targets at longer ranges via the use of target tracking, heads-up displays, and improved fire control. The introduction of PGF technology to small weapons, which was inspired by missile lock-on and fighter jet technology, reduces various causes of marksman mistake, such as mis-aim, trigger jerk, and shot setup miscalculation. At extreme ranges of 1,100 meters or farther, PGFs have the potential to greatly boost the first shot success probability (FSSP).
