Frangible bullets where used to train gunners. They could actually be shot at real armored aircraft. If that's what you have they date to WW2. The bullets are powdered lead? I just read about this subject but I can't remember where. Somebody will be along shortly to confirm what they are but I'm 99% sure.
Thanks...pulled one out of the clip SL 45 what ever that means. Roy
St. Louis ordnance factory= SL
45 = 1945
Bakelite, IIRC. But may have had some lead added into the mix.Quote:
