What could we imagine by the term bullet trap (or discharge device)? It is simply practical and more or less necessary equipment for shooting ranges, both civilian and police and military. After all, a bullet trap can prevent many unnecessary injuries or solve violations of regulations.

Thanks to bullet traps, you can be more sure that there is no cartridge left in the originally sharply loaded weapon, for example, before you start cleaning or disassembling it. Some models of pistols or rifles are equipped with a cartridge indicator in the chamber or an empty magazine indicator, but it is still better to be more sure that you or your colleague will not be hit by a stray bullet from a would-be empty weapon.

And for this reason there are bullet traps that can safely absorb the kinetic energy of the bullet and allow you to make sure that there really is no more charge left in the gun. If the weapon pointed at the bullet trap clicks empty even after several pulls of the trigger, you will increase your confidence that your pistol or rifle is ready for cleaning or disassembly, or storage in a carrying case or storage safe.

Bullet traps are intended for users who are in daily contact with weapons. Whether they are members of the police forces, the army or security organizations, employees of ballistics laboratories or owners of public shooting ranges. These are places where all safety regulations really need to be followed. However, such devices can also be used by gun hobbyists or hunters who use their weapons often, i.e. daily or almost daily.

For each bullet trap, it should be indicated what maximum bullet caliber it is capable of absorbing. In addition to ensuring the safety of the weapon, the advantage is also the minimization of noise and dust gases that would arise if you decided to just empty the weapon into a selected point in the vicinity. All you have to do is point your weapon at the bullet trap and fire. The bullet trap puts the projectile into a whirling motion, reducing its kinetic energy. As soon as the fired projectile loses its energy, it falls through the control gap into the lower part of the device.
