Bullet Catcher |
The Bullet Catcher is designed for use in forensic laboratories, at firing ranges or in the field. The bullet is captured undamaged so that examinations and comparisons can be made. Recover bullets from all pistols and rifles with a maximum bullet velocity of 1100 meters per second. The Bullet Catcher is a three-block, dismountable chamber. There is a Main Block, Intermediate Block and Inlet Block. This ensures the transportability of the unit. To ensure safe usage, the steel walls are 3 mm thick. The rear wall of the Main Block is 10 mm thick. There are six supports to hold the three Blocks, four on the Main Block and two on the Intermediate Block. For safety reasons, there are no supports on the Inlet Block to prevent it from being used alone. There is a door on each Block to allow access when retrieving fired bullets. The doors are equipped with clasps to prevent their spontaneous opening when a weapon is being fired. The chamber is filled with nonflammable fibers similar to Kevlar®. The useful life of the fibers is approximately 10,000 shots. The bullet is trapped, usually undamaged, in these fibers. After some experience, the examiner will have an idea where to quickly locate the projectile. For example, .22, .32 and .38 caliber bullets are usually found in the first 10"" of fiber. High power rifles, such as .30-06 and 7.62 NATO, will be under the third door. Specifications:
