Summary

"This program for the CPRC was to provide assistance to Correctional Services in the evaluation of alternate warning shot targets. The objectives of the program were three folds: 1) conducting literature research of alternative targets, 2) fabrication of sample targets as per specifications provided by the CPRC, and 3) set up and ballistic test the various targets. The objectives of the evaluations were to determine which targets would prevent penetration and ricochet of the selected weapons, and have the desirable features of low cost, low weight and ability to absorb multiple shots."
