Who We Are

Welcome to Ballistic Headquarters Pty Ltd
An Australian-owned and operated leader in forensic science, firearms technology, and applied weapons engineering. We stand at the cutting edge of innovation, research, and operational excellence, uniting an exceptional team of technical specialists, engineers, forensic scientists, and historical weapons experts. Every member of our team shares a single mission: to deliver precise, ethical, and evidence-based outcomes for law enforcement, defence, industry, research, and private clients across Australia and beyond.

Our company was founded on the principle that expertise should be both practical and provable. Each of our consultants brings verified credentials, published research, or direct project experience in fields ranging from forensic ballistics and firearms design to additive manufacturing, range engineering, and edged weapons craftsmanship. We combine traditional knowledge with advanced technologies to create solutions that are accurate, sustainable, and legally defensible.

 

What defines Ballistic Headquarters

Our portfolio of work spans court-admissible forensic analysis, range design audits, mechanical testing, and museum-grade antique weapon evaluations. We have advised on ballistic reconstructions, supported defence and law enforcement training programs, and conducted research that has informed both policy and academic literature. Our engineers and scientists have tested and validated next-generation materials, explored digital provenance for 3D printed firearms, and delivered consulting frameworks for complex regulatory environments.
