Re: Kid Playing with Replica Mortar Round Killed
Don't even the smallest Grenades for launchers (for example M203) have protections which arm the warhead only after a specified distance of flight? hunter: I think the damage to the body would be much worse when a high explose mortar round detonated near him... Is there no fragmentation? |

Re: Kid Playing with Replica Mortar Round Killed
I used to serve in the Army, stationed at Ft Bliss,TX and EOD's (Explosive Ordinance Detachment) usually did PSA's to the public not to handle ordinance they found in the desert, especially in the Northeast part of El Paso where the Army used that part of the city, when it was uninhabited, for an artillery range. There was a case where an idiot collector brought one of those shells home and used as an doorstop until one day it went KABOOM.
