Armories

 

 

Armories that are responsible for the arms of a police department or a military unit can obviously use the Trigger Scan system to check triggers for the required trigger pull.

with safety.......... without safety

To save the result in a file or print it on paper for the individual firearm can act as proof that the particular firearm met the requirements when it left the armory. With a maximum duration of 15 seconds for the test cycle of the complete trigger characteristic, a complete control of the serviced firearms can be done in a cost-efficient way. The time to mount the firearm can be reduced by custom preset mounts. The characteristic of the trigger graph will also show on certain firearms that the internal safety elements are installed.

 

The two horizontal lines are selfdefined limits.

The possibility to retrieve the former test files on the screen enables the armorer to compare the current state of a trigger against the state in which it was delivered the last time. “Custom tuning” by the user of a firearm can be detected and being dealt with. If though a “customized“ duty gun is used in a shooting incident and an accidental discharge because of a too light trigger is claimed, the armory and the armorer can proof that the firearm issued met all requirements and was altered later.

Spring Test

The diagram can be analysed for the spring properties

During the mandatory inspection of a firearm the recoil spring and the hammer or striker spring can be tested for their current properties.

Failure to ignite or other spring related problems like feeding malfunctions which are caused by weak springs can endanger the officer or user of the firearm. Therefore a proper and scientific method of testing those springs is mandatory. Weak springs can be detected and exchanged to ensure a fully serviceable firearm.
