40mm Spin Stabilized Foam Baton

The rubber foam ogive deforms during impact, imparting the kinetic energy over a wider surface. Developed specifically for rifled grenade launchers such as the U.S. M203 and our TGL-1, this cartridge`s projectile engages the barrel rifling. As a result, the projectile is spin stabilized and therefore highly accurate. The propelling system is similar to the one used in the U.S. M781 40mm practice round which uses an M212 high and low pressure chamber cartridge case. This proven design keeps reliability high and costs low.

Also available are reload kits. Each kit consists of shell cases, rotating bands, and foam ogives in quantities of 48, 72, 96 and 120 shot quantities. These kits are for training purpose only.

Operation

The round can be launched from a U.S. M203 or similar launcher such as our TGL-1 or M79.
