Test Guns

Universal Receivers for Small to Medium Caliber. Precision. Rugged Performance.

Sydor Technologies offers a complete line of Universal Receivers built for rigorous ballistic testing across small to medium calibers. Configured for repeatable, precision-controlled firing, each receiver supports pressure, velocity, and accuracy measurements. Sydor’s Universal Receivers are manufactured for flexibility, safety, and reliability in the lab or range.

Key Benefits

  • Multi-Caliber Compatibility
    Small-caliber platform accepts calibers from .22 to 12.7 mm (.50 BMG), with optional adapters for rimfire and shot shells. The medium-caliber system supports .22 (via adapter) up to 30 mm projectiles. Both systems are ideal for diverse test environments.

 

  • Heavy-Duty Construction
    Built to withstand sustained use, the small-caliber receiver weighs ~52 kg and features a robust breech assembly with adjustable azimuth/elevation. The medium-caliber system doubles the mass at ~100 kg, for enhanced recoil control and structural integrity for high-energy testing.

 

  • Safe, Remote-Ready Firing
    Both platforms include 24 VDC solenoid actuation options for safe, remote-triggered operation. Manual firing modes also available.

 

  • High-Precision Data Integration
    Configured to interface with pressure transducers, piezo gauges, velocity screens, and optical targeting systems. Compatible with EPVAT and other ballistic instrumentation standards.

 

  • Scalable and Accessorized
    A full range of accessories is available, including interchangeable barrels, shot-test blocks, recoil mounts, control boxes, calibration tools, and spare parts kits, ensuring your system grows with your test needs.
