A close range munition for firing from a bore of a weapon. The munition includes a spherical projectile having a central core and a plurality of uniformly radially extending resilient filaments defining an outer diameter. The outer diameter of the projectile is greater than the diameter of the firing bore so as to compress the filament within the bore.

The present invention is directed to small-arm shot ammunition having a propelling charge and an explosive charge. Separate igniters are provided for each of the charges. An ignition means is coupled to a trigger unit for operating the propelling charge igniter and the explosive charge igniter with different time intervals. The intervals are automatically selected as a function of range between the small-arm and the target. In this way, the disintegration of the ammunition ocurs as close to the target as possible.

A shotgun shell is described which reduces recoil while increasing muzzle velocity. The shell comprises a first cylindrical base portion having an enlarged rim at its rearward end with a second cylindrical portion extending forwardly from the forward end of the first cylindrical portion. The second cylindrical portion has a diameter less than the diameter of the first cylindrical portion. A third cylindrical portion extends forwardly from the forward end of the second cylindrical portion and is designed to receive a shot cup containing shot therein. A powder chamber is formed in the shell and communicates with a central opening formed in the rearward end of the shell. A primer is positioned in the central opening for communication with the powder chamber through a small opening at the forward end of the central opening. The powder chamber has a cylindrical rearward portion and an outwardly and forwardly extending tapered portion at its forward end. The reduced diameter of the second cylindrical portion expands laterally during detonation of the shell so as to reduce the recoil. The small opening or hole between the central opening and the powder chamber shields the primer during detonation and prevents the primer from being blown rearwardly from the shell during detonation.

Pipe, casing, or the like having a fitting disposed at one end thereof. The fitting has an internal and an external section which are connected in a form-locking manner, and the end of the pipe, casing, or the like is held therebetween by means of a form-locking and/or frictional connection. In particular, the external section annularly surrounds the internal section and can be connected with the internal section by means of a snap connection, and at least one of the sections is made of a sufficiently elastic material. When used as a shot cartridge case, the internal section is provided with a primer cap support and an axial flash hole.

A bore cleaning device is configured to clean a bore of a firearm. The device includes a cylindrically shaped cleaning pad including a solid, non-hollow core. The device further includes a propellant providing a force to push the cleaning pad down the bore of the firearm and a payload located in a bore-forward position of the cleaning pad. The device can optionally include a lower charge cap situated between the propellant and the cleaning pad.

Shot projectiles are disclosed that are not completely spherical. The shot may have a protruding ring, an elongated configuration, flat or concave surfaces, or other configurations that may affect the spreading distribution of the shot when fired or the ability to cause damage to a target.

The invention relates to shot pellets for hunting wild game, particularly birds on wet marshlands. The pellets are also suitable for clay pigeon shooting on organized skeet ranges. The shot pellets have an inner core comprised of lead or lead alloy, and an outer layer of silver or silver alloy. The shot pellets are not influenced, or only slightly influenced by a strong hydrochloric acid environment, therewith greatly eliminating the risk of lead leaching from the pellets. The shot pellets are produced by coating shot pellet cores of lead or lead alloy electrochemically with at least one layer, wherein the outermost layer is always comprised of silver or a silver alloy.
