TREXPO East 2010 Range Day

RWS Frangible Ammunition Demonstration with a 12 gauge

shotgun being fired on steel target at very close range offering

safe training ammunition with reactive steel targets at close

quarter battle ranges.

RWS Frangible Ammunition Demonstration at close quarters

with 5.56mm AR-15 offering close quarter training on reactive

steel targets with a reliable training load for Patrol Rifles

RWS 5.56 continued

International Cartridge demonstration of frangible duty grade

hollow-point ammunition fired into a steel box from a 9mm MP-

5 sub-machinegun and an 5.56mm AR-15 type Patrol Rifle.

These frangible rounds fragmented inside the steel box with

minimal back splatter. (Note: on the AR-15 shot there appears to

be a round that struck the side of the steel box causing the

fragments visible in the image.)

International Cartridge demonstration with ballistic gelatin and a

40 caliber round of their frangible hollow-point duty grade

ammunition. The round has effectively fragmented causing a

sizable wound cavity and consistent 12-14 inch penetration with

the base of the bullet (approximately 40% of the bullets weight).

Attendees firing the Kriss Vector 45ACP Pistol. This configuration

was mounted on a shoulder sling with a compact red dot sight.

This offered a weapon design with accurate and power

ammunition in a compact design with reduced recoil through the

Kriss action design.

Attendees firing the Kriss Vector 45ACP sub-machinegun

equipped with a folding butt stock, reflex sight, and sound

suppressor. This configuration offered a compact and

controllable sub-machinegun with less perceived recoil than a

9mm MP-5 but fired the 45ACP cartridge at 1000 rounds per

minute.

Attendees firing the 45ACP Kriss Vector sub-machinegun on full

automatic at 1000 rounds per minute with less perceived recoil

than a 9mm MP-5 sub-machinegun. These photographs have

the sound suppressor removed which highlights the affect of a

sound suppressor in significantly reducing muzzle flash.

Kriss SMG continued

Kriss SMG continued

Attendee Ron Banks firing the 45ACP Kriss Vector sub-

machinegun at 1000 rounds per minute. The muzzle was kept

on target with the operators solid shooting stance and the

unique Kriss design minimizing perceived recoil and muzzle

jump..

Attendee Vic Russell firing a Kimber sub-compact 45ACP. This

small 1911 design offers a very concealable option firing a full-

sized caliber in an ergonomic design that minimized muzzle flip

as evidenced in these photographs.

Attendee firing the Kimber precision bolt action in 308

Winchester optimized for Law Enforcement sniper missions.

Doublestar brought a number of their popular AR-15 type rifles

to the range. The DS-4 version of the 14.5 inch barrel M4 type, a

16 inch lightweight barrel Patrol Carbine, and the 11.5 inch

barreled Carbine optimized for entry type operations. They

also brought their new 1911 type 45ACP Combat Pistol a full-

sized steel duty pistol design.

Attendee Vic Russell with the Doublestar representative and

NTOA Instructor Don Alwes learning to operate and firing the

11.5 inch barreled Carbine equipped with a Aimpoint Red Dot

sight.

Attendee Ron Banks firing the Doublestar 14.5 inch barreled

Carbine equipped with an EO-Tech Holographic sight. This

configuration is based on the US Army’s standard issue M4

Carbine with a 14.5 inch barrel and is becoming quite popular as

a Law Enforcement Patrol Rifle too.

Attendee firing the EMA Tactical RONi Pistol/Carbine conversion

kit. This unit attaches a modular housing to an existing Glock

pistol and provides a shoulder stock, forward grip, and sight

mounting rail to provide better precision potential and a more

controllable weapon.

A large amount of empty brass was generated by the attendees.

Some very accurate shooting by the attendees.
