BALISTA Smoothbore Gun Firing Imitator

Designed to acquire representative projectiles for comparison and analysis without actual firing of smoothbore weapons

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

OPTIMAL APPLICATION

Acquisition of sample projectiles by imitating the firing from single- and double-barreled smoothbore guns.

FUNCTIONAL CAPABILITIES

  • Casting of dummy projectiles of a needed caliber by means of special split molds
  • Secure holding of a barrel on the rack
  • Pulling of the dummy projectile through the barrel

The device consists of a vertical rack with holders for securing the gun in place, a drive gear for pulling a dummy projectile through the barrel and a quick-detachable base. The two moveable clamps and the muzzle end stop allow a shotgun to be easily and safely secured in place. Construction of the clamps allows you to securely attach a single- or double-barreled shotgun just by reversing the clamps.

BALISTA is indispensable in cases there are no other ways to obtain representative bullets for comparison and analysis:

  • the gun’s barrel is curved;
  • shooting from the gun is not safe;
  • the gun is imcomplete (disassembled).
