Active Shooter Response System Providing A Safe Alternative To Blank Rounds
Most responders don’t know how they will actually react in the midst of an active shooting.
So we created the gunSHOT BOX™ which generates unlimited adrenaline-invoking simulated gunshots — replicating the intensity of shots-fired for a safe alternative to blank rounds or blank firing guns. Trainees will now be prepared to swiftly respond with predictable confidence and save lives.
2023 Prague shootings
Inadequate Training Cost Lives. No recent story shows this better than the Mass Shooting in Prague, Czech Republic where 14 people were killed and 22 People were injured.
While the perpetrator was ruthlessly shooting at innocent civilians from a building terrace, he was engaged by a plains-clothed officer from street level. But because of the loudness of the gunshots, they panic of the people all around him, and the situation developing infront of him, the officer failed to hit his target a total of 3 times from a distance of 90+meters.
Because of inadequate training and preparation for a situation such as this, the police man involuntarily froze and shut down…rendering him unable to take out the shooter sooner.
This of course is in no way his fault as he had always trained with hearing protection which of course did not prepare him for the real thing when it happened.
And isn’t that what our training is supposed to ensure…namely…that we don’t have to guess how we’ll respond when trouble comes.
Failure of proper training for such incidents resulted in many more lives being lost than needed.
Incidents such as this are more common than we are led to believe, and because of this such institutions like the FBI has now integrated the gunSHOT BOX into their Quantico FBI Academy and training facility.
In the dynamic realm of law enforcement, the role of K9 units stands as a powerful force multiplier. These specially trained canine operators bring unparalleled skills and instincts that enhance the effectiveness of police and military operations. However, behind every successful K9 team lies a foundation built on rigorous training – a critical component that cannot be overstated. Training with realistic shots blast simulators will save time and budget over the traditional methodology of using live fire or blanket fire.
