U N D E R G R O U N D TRAINING Because Action Target understands that training objectives are unique and can change from one facility to another, we offer multiple approaches to underground training. You can now simulate everything from a sewer system, to a subway station, to a hardened and deeply buried target complex. The design of your training facility can be a totally buried covert pipe complete with a manhole and an 80-pound cover, or a MATCH facility in an enclosed building that replicates a WMD bunker. The flexible and reconfigurable nature of MATCH lets you simulate a wide variety of threat environments. As with any enclosed shooting facility, ventilation in an underground simulator must be a primary concern. While the facility must realistically replicate the threat environment, it must not present a health or safety hazard. Action Target is one of only two companies in the United States that have been tested and approved to meet the highest shooting range standards set by the U.S. Navy for firearms training facilities. Action Target indoor ranges for the Navy result in no detectable lead measured in the shooter’s respiratory zone. (See Ventilation for more details) Action Target will work with you to create a facility that safely and effectively meets your underground training requirements, whatever they may be. t THe desIgn of your TrAInIng fACIlITy CAn be A ToTAlly burIed CoverT pIpe CoMpleTe wITH A MAnHole And An 80-pound Cover. 26 26 ACTIONTARGET.COM

Are rubber floors neCessAry In A sHooTHouse? Action Target can provide rubber flooring from 1/2-inch to 2-inches thick inside MATCH facilities based on your specific needs. For example, rubber tiles may be used to create a solid floor in your MATCH facility if it is constructed on a dirt surface. However, before deciding to install a rubber floor, several things must be understood. Primarily, rounds that impact a concrete floor continue to travel in the same path so splatter is not directed backwards. The bullet then comes to a stop as it hits the next steel wall it comes in contact with. High-speed camera tests indicate that super-sonic rounds typically break up on initial impact with the concrete floor. Slower rounds do not break up and tend to bounce off the concrete more or less intact, thereby posing a potentially higher degree of hazard. If used in your shoothouse, rubber flooring should be inspected for wear on a regular basis and replaced when necessary. It is important to note that rubber flooring should be removed during training where incendiary munitions, smoke grenades, breaching explosives, or fragmentation grenades are used.
