The accuracy of gun barrels is often the main indicator of their quality. A shot dispersion of every weapon is greatly influenced by the barrel vibration during firing. In our contribution we present the results of experimental tests of composite gun barrels subjected to impact loading. The deformation was measured for seven barrels made from different composite materials by strain gauge applied on the outer diameter of the barrel. The experimental measurements were compared with the finite element simulations in Abaqus and MARC software for one selected composite material.
