The blue plastic windshields can crack during assembly or in shipping. Shoot enough M781 & you learn to inspect them first. While they are meant to break on impact they don't always. The zinc pusher (far right) is to give the practice rounds the proper weight. A zinc pusher will go though a car door @ 100 yards. M781 Practice is not something you want to shoot at anyone. |

Yeah. That 40mm round has a centrifugal spin activated safety that irises open to allow the HE detonator to arm....after @20'. I have fired hundreds of rounds through bloop tubes...the HE and WP were my favorites.
