and yet Glocks still kaboom without this. This is why we can't have nice things 
This is a very interesting and worthwhile topic but now it will just degenerate into a name calling free for all Oh. And IBTL 
Hey, @#$% you, ya cynical baby-killing screwball. Damn, you were right!

| I like how they showed a casing that had already had the bullet pulled for the demonstation. I thought that you weren't able to pick the rounds out from the regular ones. I mean,isn't that the point? Make it so that the shooetrs don't want to fire their guns. I think this is probably propaganda. Particularly where he is stating that we are doing this in Iraq and Afghanistan. |

How about some exploding arty shells, exploding RPG shells, poisoned bandages & medicine, and laxative laced rations? Edit This conflict is like the Nazis and the Commies fighting in WWII...the longer the they kill each other the better the world is for it. The video in the article shows a iraqi trying to shell US troops. His second shell is rigged to blow in his face, and it does. |

The reporter's voice, WTF!? I could only watch 20 seconds of that before I muted the damn thing. Sounds like he's trying to sound like a badass. He was a Marine infantry officer and a Pullitzer winning war correspondent. Maybe sounding like a badass comes naturally to him? |

The Green Berets did this in Vietnam, they put C-4 into Ak ammo cartridges on dead VC. project Eldest Son... I once saw a destroyed AK on display credited to SOG ammo shenanigans... There's fascinating reading about those operations; Eldest Son, Pole Bean, and Italian Green. John Plaster's books mention it, and much can be found on the web. Although deadly serious, it was comical what our guys were up to. |

We ran across some weapons that had the bolt welded shut by ammo. Scuttlebutt abounded but we never got official word on why. This was Iraq 08-09 Magnesium? I have no idea, perhaps powdered magnesium and thermite. It really fucked up the bolt and chamber though, lots of slag |

Good if it helps them kill each other faster. The Syrian insurrection is just like the Iran/Iraq war, we want no one to win, and it to be very long and bloody. Plus Iran & the Russians, will have to devote money and weapons to propping up the status quo dictator so he & Iran won't be sending rockets and weapons to the Palestinians. No lose scenario. |

Exactly. More russian output to shit holes other than where our troops are is a good thing. plus the more russian shit destroyed by each side does us a favor. |

It really fucked up the bolt and chamber though, lots of slag I have heard that this^^^^^ combo with 1 or 2 small things more in the mix is a the best way to make really cool paper weights. I have been out of the 'circle' for some time, and my best sources are dead, so confirmation is going to be 'difficult'. Several such rounds were among a personal stash of a 'friend' of mine. (seriously, not me) When he did get robbed, he called the cops, and told them that many of the rifles that were taken were not worthy of firing; although they were functional. Popo notified area hospitals for BOLO, a few days later... the calls from the ER came in. Several welded and destroyed AK types and SKSs were recovered. No charges against owner filed. |
