Thales Australia is supplying the Australian Defence Materiel Organization (DMO) over 35,000 Bullet Trap Blank Firing Attachments (BTBFAs) designed for the Australian assault rifle Austeyr F88. The BTBFA is a patented technology registered by Thales Australia. The bullet trap is attached to the end of the rifle barrel and enables the weapon to function when firing blank ammunition. If a live round is inadvertently fired,Christian Louboutin Sito, the bullet is retained within the BTBFA,Chaussures louboutin, preventing injury to bystanders or the soldier firing the weapon. It is colored red to enable easy identification of their use during exercises. It will be used on training ranges. BTBFAs weighs about half the weight of the current in-service bayonet, and are optimized for the new Thales F3A1 blank round. A major advantage over conventional Blank Firing Attachment (BFA) is that the BTBFA is designed to actually stops an accidental firing of a live round, before it leaves the barrel,louboutin madrid, compared to conventional BFA which provides the back pressure to enable blank firing.
