This equipment is used in measuring the chamber and port pressure of a cartridge as well as the bullet velocity. Basically a transducer it is being used by other ammunition manufacturers. It will be stationed at the Quality Assurance Division of the Gov't Arsenal to ensure cartridges are within military specifications and that it is safe and reliable.
