CHAPTER 5

AMMUNITION

5-1. General

The ammunition for the Rifles, 5.56-MM,Ml6 and M16Al is classified as small-armsammunition and is issued in the form of acomplete round. A complete round (cartridge)consists of all the components necessary tofire the weapon once, that is, projectile (bul-let), cartridge case, propellant, and primer.

5-2. Classification

a. Cartridges for the Rifles, 5.56-MM, Ml6and M16Al are classified as centerfire car-tridges. In a centerfire cartridge the primer islocated in a small well or pocket in the centerof the cartridge case head.

b. The cartridges for these weapons areclassified and identified according to type andmodel as follows:

(1) Ball, M 193

(2) Tracer, Ml96

(3) Dummy, Ml99

(4) Blank, M200

5-3. Identification

a. General. Ammunition for this weapon isidentified completely by packing and marking,including the ammunition lot number, onoriginal packing containers. When ammunitionis removed from its original packing container,the full identity of the ammunition, includingthe lot number, nomenclature and model de-signation shall be maintained with the am-munition.

b. Identification. The various cartridges canbe visually identified as itemized in table 5-l.

C. Marking. Ammunition for 5.56-mm weap-ons has the manufacturer’s identification andyear of manufacture impressed on the head ofthe cartridge case. The year is denoted by thelast two digits of the calendar year.

5-4. Care, Handling and Preservation

a. This ammunition is not dangerous tohandle. It is packed to withstand conditionsnormally encountered in the field. Moisture re-sistant ammunition boxes are used to provideprotection during shipment and storage; how-ever, care must be taken to prevent this pack-ing from becoming damaged. All damagedpacking must be repaired or replaced immedi-ately with careful attention given to the trans-fer of all markings to the new parts.

b. Ammunition boxes should be opened care-fully as they are to be used as long as theyare serviceable.

c. Ammunition boxes should not be openeduntil the ammunition is required for use. Am-munition removed from airtight containersfor extended periods of time, particularly indamp climate, is apt to corrode, thereby ren-dering the ammunition unserviceable.

d. Cartridges should be protected from hightemperatures and prolonged exposure to thedirect rays of the sun. Such exposure is likelyto affect ballistic performance of the car-tridges. The combination of high tempera-tures and a humid atmosphere is particularlydetrimental to the stability of the propellantand to the tracer mixture in tracer ammuni-tion.

e. Cartridges should be kept clean and freeof foreign matter. If cartridges get wet or dirty,they should be wiped off at once. If light cor-rosion forms on cartridges, it should be wipedoff with a clean dry cloth. If a cartridge casebecomes so corroded that any amount of metalis eaten away, it is dangerous to fire and shouldnot be fired. Cartridges should not be polishedto make them look better or brighter.

f. The use of oil or grease on cartridges isprohibited. Oil or grease might cause injuriousabrasives to collect in weapons or produce ex-cessive and hazardous chamber pressureswhen fired.

g. Whenever practicable, ammunition shouldbe stored under cover. This applied particu-larly to tracer ammunition.

h. When it is necessary to store ammunitionin open storage, raise it on dunnage at leastsix inches from the ground and cover it witha double thickness of paulin, leaving enoughspace for the free circulation of air throughthe stack. Suitable trenches should be dug toprevent water from running under the stack.

i. When ammunition is stored, it should besegregated by caliber or millimeter, type, andammunition lot.

j. When only a part of a box of ammunitionis issued or used the ammunition remainingin the ammunition box should b.e protected byfirmly fastening the cover.

k. Ammunition removed from the originalpacking should be tagged or marked so as topreserve the ammunition lot number.

1. For additional instructions in the care,handling, and preservation, destruction ofammunition refer to TM 9-1300-206.

5-5. Authorized Cartridges

The following cartridges are authorized foruse with this weapon:

a. Ball, Ml93

b. Tracer, Ml96

c. Dummy, Ml99

d. Blank, M200

54. Preparation for Firing

a. After removal, from packing materials,these cartridges are ready to be used.

b. Cartridges which are not used will bereturned to their original packings. (Such car-tridges will be used first in subsequent firingsso as to reduce stocks of opened packings.) Ifthe original packings are not utilized, theboxes in which the ammunition is storedshould be appropriately marked with the no-menclature of the cartridges and the ammuni-tion lot number.

5-7. Packing

The ammunition box and method of pack for5.56-mm ammunition for these weapons isgiven in drawings, specifications, or as speci-fied in the procurement contract. The ammu-nition box presently being used has beendesigned to withstand all conditions common-ly encountered in handling, storing, and trans-portation of the ammunition.

CHAPTER 6

DEMOLITION OF MATERIEL TO PREVENT ENEMY USE

6- l . Genera l

a. Rifles, subject to capture or abandonmentin the combat zone, will be destroyed only bythe authority of the unit commander, in ac-cordance with orders of, or policy establishedby the army commander. The destruction ofequipment is to be reported through regularCommand channels.

b. The information which follows is for guid-ance only. Certain of the procedures outlinedrequire use of explosives and inc:endiary gre-nades, normally not authorized items of issueto the using organization. Issue of these andrelated items, and conditions under which de-struction will be effected are command deci-sions based on the tactical situation. Of theseveral means of destruction, the followinggenerally apply :Mechanical Requires axe, pick mattock,

sledge, crowbar , or otherflammables or welding orcutting torch.

Burning Requires gasoline, oil, incendi-ary grenades, and other flam-mables or welding or cuttingtorch.

Demolition

Gunfire

Requires suitable explosives orammunition.

Includes artillery, machine gun,rifle grenades, and launchersusing antitank rockets. Undersome circumstances, handgrenades may be used.

Disposal Requires burying in the ground,dumping in streams or marsh-es, or scattering so widely asto preclude recovery of essen-tial parts.

Destruction of essential ‘parts by mechanicalmeans will render the rifle useless, however,

36

selection depends upon utilizing facilities onhand under existing conditions. Time is usu-ally critical.

c. If destruction to prevent enemy use isresorted to, the rifle and bipod must be dam-aged so that they cannot be restored to ausable condition in combat zone either by re-pair or cannibalization. Adequate destructionrequires that all parts essential to the oper-ation of the rifle and bipod be destroyed ordamaged beyond repair. However, when lackof time and personnel preventall parts, priority is given toparts in the following order:

(1) Bolt carrier group(2) Upper receiver group(3) Lower receiver group

It is equally important that the

destruction ofdestruction of

same essentialparts be destroyed on all like materiel, includ-ing spare parts, so that the enemy cannotconstruct one, complete unit from several dam-aged units.

d. If destruction is directed, due considera-tion should be given observance of appropri-ate safety precautions.
