The 5.56x45 DM18A1 blank cartridge is engineered for training and simulation scenarios in the German Armed Forces. It was specially developed for the G36 aussault rifles, but is also compatible with all introduced semi-automatic and fully automatic weapons in 5.56x45 calibre. A suitable blank cartridge device is required to ensure that the firearm functions properly. The heavy metal-free SINTOX primer and REACH-compliant propellant powder minimise the user’s exposure to harmful substances. With the applied sealing in the imitation bullet (lacquer) and the ring joint of the primer cap (ring joint lacquer), it guarantees safe functionality even under the most adverse circumstances such as strong fluctuations in temperature and weather conditions.
