DON'T TAMPER WITH
JAPANESE EXPLOSIVE BULLETS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Three different types of explosive and incendiary small-arms ammunition have been captured from the Japanese in the Southwest Pacific area. Because of the unusual characteristics of this ammunition, serious injuries sometimes have resulted when soldiers have tampered with it out of ignorance or curiosity.
Apparently first manufactured for use in Japanese aircraft or antiaircraft weapons, some of this ammunition has been found loaded in five round clips, presumably for use in infantry weapons. This ammunitionâ??7.7-mm or 7.92-mmâ??may easily be recognized by color markings at the junction of the bullet with the cartridge or around the primer cap. It should not be handled carelessly.
Japanese Army Incendiary Bullet
Japanese Army Explosive Bullet
The three different types of ammunition are the 7.7-mm rimmed Navy round, the 7.7-mm semi-rimmed Army round, and the 7.92-mm rimless Army round.
Explosive and incendiary rounds may be recognized by the color marking as indicated in the following table:
Class of
Ammunition Type of
Projectile Position of
Color Mark Color Shape of
Nose
7.7-mm Navy rimmed Explosive Incendiary Primer cap Dull red ?
7.7-mm Navy rimmed Incendiary Primer cap Green Pointed
7.7-mm Army semi-rimmed Explosive Junction of case & proj. Purple Flat on tip
7.7-mm Army semi-rimmed Incendiary Junction of case & proj. Wine red Pointed
7.92-mm Army rimless Explosive Junction of case & proj. White Flat on tip
7.92-mm Army rimless Incendiary Junction of case & proj. Red Pointed
The 7.7-mm rimmed Navy round is of two kindsâ??one is a combination high-explosive and incendiary, the other only incendiary. Both types of the Army ammunitionâ??the semi-rimmed and the rimlessâ??are loaded either with an incendiary bullet or with a strictly explosive bullet (see illustration on page 32).
These bullets are not fuzed, but explode or ignite when the copper jacket is ruptured on impact with the target. The explosive bullet may be recognized by its flat nose, but the incendiary has the pointed nose of an ordinary bullet. The explosive bullet is capable of blowing a 3-inch hole in a sheet of aircraft Duralumin.
