This book is essential for all professional and lay people wanting to know about the extensive and complex topic of police resources. So far there has not been a reference book with detailed information about the current technological innovations. This book illustrates shotguns and accessories, shooting effects, crowd control devices, protective gear and other resources. The author is especially concerned with the ammunition used for short arms and shoulder arms and their target behaviour. He compares various types of bullets and test results of the major international manufacturers and also refers to his own shooting tests carried out with the methodology of the FBI and the German police technical institute PTI. This extensive documentation includes almost 300 photographs and charts, by now it has become a textbook for various German federal state police services. (In German language)
