You decide the role ML-12 performs by simply changing the type of munitions
*NOTE: Ammunition listed below is “off the shelf product we have tested with good results. There are munitions that we have tested with less than favorable results from the ML-12. Ammunition results may vary from lot to lot. Please test a portion of ammo prior to field use.
Bruzer 12 Gauge Flexible Duty Munitions
The Bruzer Duty Less Lethal Flexible and Non Flexible Munitions has the consistency and accuracy necessary to place less lethal hits where you need them. The patented design along with its two ply sock style sack (ballistic material) allows for very accurate shot placement with a large impact area. To maintain a consistent and accurate round of ammunition we utilize high quality digital laboratory scales in our manufacturing process. Ballistic material and lead shot are weighted to within plus or minus one tenth of a grain. Powder charges are weighted to exact specifications.
We know the positive identification of less lethal munitions is very critical
Traditionally, flexible munitions are marked with ink on the clear plastic hull. The problem is the ink will rub or flake off causing an uncertainty of ammunition type.
The Bruzer munitions are identified by a bright yellow printed label inside the clear plastic shotgun hull. There is no printing on the outer hull that could rub off causing uncertainty of ammunition type. When fired, the “cigar band” style label exits the barrel, travels approx. three feet and floats to the ground. The label also acts as a bearing surface which reduces drag as the sock travels down the barrel.
Bruzer 12 Gauge Flexible Training Round (Bean Bag)
The reduced cost of the Training Flexible Munitions ( KINETIC ENERGY IMPACT MUNITIONS) is an excellent way for law enforcement to train all their officers. Its ballistic properties are such that you will not be able to notice any difference between it and your duty round. The design of the 2 ply cotton “sock style” projectile allows for a very accurate shot placement.
To maintain a consistent and accurate round of munitions we utilize medical grade digital scales in our manufacturing process. Material and lead shot are weighted to within plus or minus one tenth of a grain. Power charges are weighted to exact specifications. This manufacturing process alone adds greatly to the accuracy and consistency.
Traditionally, munitions are marked with ink on the plastic hull. The problem is the ink will rub or flake off causing an uncertainty of munitions type. We know the identification of less lethal munitions is a must.
We use clear hulls and the munitions type is labeled from inside the clear hull. On our training round we use a printed blue label placed inside the hull similar to a cigar band. The round can be identified at several points around the hull. When fired the label exits the barrel, travels approx. three feet and floats to the ground. The label also acts as a bearing surface to reduce projectile drag as it travels down the barrel.
