Full textDaily thousands of military officers from security forces use fire arms, sometimes in actions against crime or in mandatory training seasons. Despite of this, there is a few information about the risk associated with firing ranges, especially when heavy weapons are used in a hard training seasons with hard physical work and elevated number of rounds, the security forces might be under risk of intoxication. Other types of exposure with less frequency and intensity, but using a high lead containing ammunition and different types of weapons, like in the ballistics forensic cases are not yet sufficiently studied. Data from these types of occupational exposure in these environments are important in order to establish safety working procedures. The goal in this research is to study the occupational exposure in the police department and the ballistics laboratories in personal who are under the risk of this exposure in their routinely daily work and during the training courses in the Sao Paulo´s Military Police Department. In order to reach this, some biological materials were sampled (blood, urine and saliva) as well as air samples from the environment in the firing ranges during routinely daily work. In the two studied cases the monitored airborne lead varied in accordance with the type of weapon and ammunition used, and was ultra passed the limit of exposure established in the norm NR-15 (100 μg/m3) after the shot gun was used during the training season (216 μg/m3). The average and standard deviation of lead content in blood before (3,3 μg/dL ± 0,7) and after (18,2 μg/dL ± 5,1) de training season shows a significant rise of the lead levels in a very short period of time. An increment of the lead and antimony levels in urine was demonstrated. The other studied case, in the ballistics laboratory showed minor increments of lead in blood and airborne residues when compared with the limits established in the norm NR- 7 (60 μg/dL) but when compared in a cohort study the data lead to establish a significant difference between the exposed group from the ballistics and the control group. These results let us to design a proposal to safely work in these environments and to give the recommendations in the engineering design of the indoor ranges. The implemented changes will lead to minimize the risk associated with the use of weapons and lead containing ammunitions. The conclusions of the present work contribute to adequateness of the related legislation and the tolerance limits of exposure used in the occupational health practice.

It was refused in 1939 when Gaižiūnai firing range was established. It was founded by chief of staff general colonel P. Kubiliūnas and army inspector colonel O. Urbonas. The necessary territories for near Jonava city founded range were redeemed from private owners by special prepared law implementation of which was filled during whole period of working of firing range. Founding the Gaižiūnai firing range an administrative office – commandant headquarter of firing range vouchsafed the right working and supervision of military territory. In period of military exercises which was named in May – September, command and staff operated in range which performed functions of organizational exercises. Installation work of Gaižiūnai firing range was oriented to preparation of territory for work of managing staff, making of living conditions of soldiers and fitting of military exercises. In this context deforestation, land drainage works, transaction of transport infrastructure, repair of previous buildings and construction of new buildings of various purposes and shooting-ranges were made in the territory of range. The installation work was made during whole period of working of Gaižiūnai range until the 31st of October 1939, when transfer of range to Soviet soldiers was confirmed, it was... [to full text]

Full textThe use of firearms creates noise pollution, release of toxic elements and a risk that the projectiles miss the targets and end up outside of the firing range. One of the solutions to these issues is to erect walls and a roof around the range, and thus create an indoor firing range. This might however increase the range users’ exposure to toxic elements related to the discharge of firearms. To mitigate this the indoor firing range needs a properly designed and well-functioning ventilation system. The purpose of this study is to evaluate how ventilation systems for indoor firing ranges should be designed in order to remove the toxic elements released when shooting. The study is primarily focused on lead pollution, but the results can also be generalised for a multitude of other relevant pollutants. The study is part of the Swedish Fortifications Agency (Fortifikationsverket) project regarding the design of future indoor firing ranges. The design parameters for ventilation systems at indoor firing ranges are regulated by the occupational safety and health regulations. In the final part of the study the authors also address other important aspects to create a safe working environment at indoor firing ranges. This study is conducted as a research review where literature from 1975 up until today has been studied. Search terms based on permutations of “shooting”, “firing”, “range”, “ventilation” and “firearm” have been used in the Web of Science and Scopus databases. The resulting list, after being culled for duplicates and “false positives”, contained approximately 70 articles. Reviewing these articles let us identify the design parameters used both internationally and nationally in Sweden. We also identified the original report that most of the internationally available literature is based upon. In this Bachelor of Science thesis, we also raise some questions related to the original report and the prerequisites it was based upon. The result of the research survey is that the ventilation for indoor firing ranges should be designed for laminar flow (piston flow) in the direction from the shooters towards the bullet trap. The air flow should be between 0,25 and 0,4 m/s (50 to 75 feet per minute). A good tool when designing the range ventilation is CFD simulations. CFD simulations allow for early phase evaluation of different design solutions. Similar simulations can also be used when problem solving problems on already existing ranges, if any. Furthermore, both cleaning and personal hygiene are crucial components to achieve a safe working environment at indoor firing ranges. To facilitate cleaning the range should have surface materials that are non-porous and easy to clean. Washing facilities for work clothes and personal hygiene should be present. These results are addressed as part of the discussion chapter in the Bachelor of Science thesis where two basic scenarios are formulated, one for building a new indoor firing range, and one for redesigning an existing indoor firing range.

In the police general education and training, the shooting training is one of the most important subjects. In order to elaborate the shooting technique of police staff and enhance the extent of all sorts of strategies, the complement of police shooting and fighting training is fairly frequent. In addition to excellent teaching staff and courses, the well-managed indoor firing range is required. In recent years, incidents, such as murdering policemen and taking over the pistols, are reported frequently. When facing the powerfully armed criminals, the probability of police death will be enhanced if the shooting training and range management is not well-prepared. In the past, the first priority of the management of the police shooting range is the shooting technique and duty equipment, the safety management of indoor range is seldom emphasized. The quality and the standard of indoor shooting range must be increased in order to offer the better shooting environment for police training; therefore, the first goal of improving police shooting quality is to make a perfect security management of indoor firing range. This thesis is divided into five chapters. Chapter One is an introduction, explaining the research motivation, purpose, method and procedures. Chapter Two focuses on the literature review. The range laws in Taiwan and USA are analyzed and compared. Moreover, collecting domestic and range accident relevant information on the reasons for the occurrence of range accidents, characteristics and damages, and providing reference direction of the domestic police indoor range field survey. Chapter Three investigates the police indoor firing range and analyze the status of the police authorities of the northern region, based on more frequent uses of three indoor ranges, the following points, such as (1) safety equipment design, (2) the range rules, (3) staff, (4) Industrial safety and hygiene, (5) waste, (6) operating procedures. For the six measures, and relevant information, we can elaborate problems on police safety management of indoor range. Chapter Four analyzes the information based on Chapters Two and Three and Foreign literature to set up the range safety strategies, which are included: (1) Establish regulations, (2) range assessment, (3) Personnel Protection, (4) Industrial safety and hygiene, (5) Education and training, (6) Waste management, (7) Professional training. Finally, the conclusions and suggestions are given in Chapter Five.
