§ 1 Test procedure

(1) Firearms, Böller as well as the most highly stressed parts according to § 2 para. 2 of the German Law on Civil Protection (Law), which can be exchanged without rework (test items), must be officially examined in accordance with § § 3 to 6 and Annex I No. 1 and 2. (2) The official examination (examination) according to § 5 of the law consists of the preliminary examination, the fire and the inspection. (3) The preliminary examination includes:

1.: the examination of the marking in accordance with § 24 (1) of the Weapons Act and in accordance with § 21 of the General Ceasefire Regulation,
2.: the verification of functional safety and visual inspection,
3.: the examination of the dimensional accuracy,
4.: the examination of the quality of objects which have been manufactured in accordance with § § 8 and 9 of the Act or which have been brought into the scope of the law on the basis of an authorisation or authorization.

The visual inspection consists of the examination of all the most highly stressed parts for material defects, on the defects and machining defects, which can impair the durability, as well as from the test for running and bearing deformations. The measurement test consists of the test of the measurements according to Appendix I No. 1.1.3 in connection with the measurements made by the Federal Ministry of the Interior's notice in the Federal Gazette of 10 January 2000 (BAnz. 38a of 24 February 2000), as published in the current version. Newly registered ammunition in accordance with § 27 (1) shall be the same as those listed in the scales. In the examination of the quality of the procurement, the competent authority is convinced by visual checks whether the test objects have the characteristics specified in the letter of approval. (4) The fire shall be subject to the test requirements of Annex I No. 1 (5) In the case of the inspection, the test objects shall be re-examined for functional safety, dimensional accuracy and defects in durability, and shall be subject to a visual inspection as referred to in the second sentence of paragraph 3.

1.: In the case of black powder and hand arches, the inspection can be carried out on white-finished runs with a finished closure and ignition channel. In the case of black powder weapons, the ignition channel must not be greater than 1 millimetre in diameter at the narrowest point in diameter, not more than 2 millimetres in the case of Böllern and model cannons. In duly justified cases, the competent authority may grant exemptions from the diameter limit for the customs authorities, with the exception of the hand-böller.
2.: If the Böller has reed tap holes, they must not pass through into the tube core; this also applies when they are screwed, welded, pressed or soldered in. Böller, whose pipe end is butt-welded, are not tested.
3.: The preliminary test in the case of Böllern also includes the examination of the marking with the maximum permissible mass in grams of the Böllerpulvers with the characteristic letters SP and the maximum permissible mass of the original in grams.
4.: The verification of the dimensional accuracy (§ 1 para. 3 sentence 1 no. 3 in connection with sentence 3) is limited to the determination of the internal diameter of the barrel or tube and to the test whether the ignition channel is the maximum permissible diameter prescribed in point 1. does not exceed.

(3) The following conditions are to be included in the Böller-certificate of examination for the examination of Böllern:

1.: The minimum powder charge of a Böller must be dimensioned in such a way that a safe ignition is basically ensured.
2.: An ignition by the pipe mouth is not permitted. The ignition must take place immediately upon triggering of the ignition mechanism. The type of ignition tested and permissible shall be included in the Böller-certification certificate.
3.: Only materials that do not exceed the permissible mass of the template in accordance with the loading tables may be used as a template in a Böller.

Mechanical-electrical converters for measuring the gas pressure of central firebox ammunition for weapons with smooth runs

5.3.1

As a rule, the gas pressure of the cartridges is to be measured by means of piezo-electric or equivalent pressure sensors in tangential or set-back installation methods. It is also possible to use mechanical-electrical converters of a different type if a clear connection is known between their display and that of the above-mentioned devices. In any case, the display of the above-mentioned pressure sensors is to be converted.

When suitable transducers are used in tangential fitting, it is also possible to measure without drilling the sleeve, provided that the height of the bottom cap does not exceed 22 mm (FIG. 2c). In the case of use cartridges with cardboard sleeve, the measured value must then be multiplied by 1.05.

Indirect measurement of the gas pressure at the measuring point II (S (deep) M = (162 +-0.5) mm). The measurement of the gas pressure at the measuring point II is carried out indirectly. For this purpose, the time of the passage of the propellant base is recorded by the cross-section at the measuring point II and the pressure prevailing at the measuring point I (S (deep) M, see Table 2) at the same time is measured. In addition to a mechanical-electrical transducer, the registration of the passage of the propellant base can also be carried out with another suitable measuring sensor, for example.

Annex VI Determination of the kinetic energy of the projectiles

(Fundstelle des Originaltextes: BGBl. I 2006, 1527;
with regard to of the individual amendments. Footnote The kinetic energy of the projectiles shall be considered in accordance with the following principles:

1.: The arithmetic mean of the cocoed energy (E (deep) 10) resulting from ten individual measurements is first formed by a weapon which has been randomly picked up from a production. If E (low) 10 is not over 5.0 J, then the further test is not necessary and it is considered to be assured that the kinetic energy of this weapon model is not more than 7.5 J. In the other case, four other weapons taken from the production line are to be considered. If the total average E (deep) 5 x (deep) 10 is not more than 7.5 J and none of the five weapons tested, the respective upper tolerance limit for 90% of the population with a statistical safety of 95% above 8.5 J (E (deep) 10 + k (deep) 3, (deep) 10 x s (deep) 10 < = 8,5 J, k (deep) 3, (deep) 10 = 2.36), the motion energy of the projectiles of 7.5 J in this weapon model is considered to be observed. In the event of only one to the contrary, the opposite is assumed. In the case of the toy weapons, the test is carried out in a corresponding manner for the overall mean of not more than 0.5 J. The test of four further weapons from the production series is superflued if the first tested piece is not more than 0.4 J in the case of a first piece. The respective upper tolerance limit in the above sense must not exceed 0.6 J (i.e., 10 + K3, 10 S10 ≤ 0.6 J).
2.: If the examination of the movement energy of the projectiles is carried out on a single piece, the value of 7.5 J shall be deemed not to be exceeded if the mean value E (deep) 10 resulting from ten measurements does not exceed 8,0 J and the upper The tolerance limit for 90% of the population with a statistical safety of 95% is not above 8.5 J (E (deep) 10 + k (deep) 3, (deep) 10 x s (deep) 10 < = 8.5 J). The value of the kinetic energy of 0,5 J shall be deemed not to be exceeded if the mean value of the ten measurements is not more than 0.55 J and the upper tolerance limit of 90% of the population with a statistical safety of 95% is not exceeded. more than 0.6 J (0.10 + K3, 10 S10 ≤ 0.6 J).
3.: The kinetic energy of the projectiles is calculated as half the product of the mass and of the square of the projectile speed. The average velocity of the projectile between two points of the projectile path is derived from a measurement of the flight time. The flight time is measured with a light barrier system, the first light barrier having to be 0.50 m and the second 1.50 m in front of the mouth. An electronic counter with a time resolution of at least 10 × 10 (high) -6s is to be used as the display device. By dividing the measuring distance between the two points of the trajectory (I, 00 m) by the measured time, the average speed is calculated.
