Anyone else notice this apparently baton round projector being used in India this week?

Someone else in the background has got an SLR.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

They have been using them since (at least) the '80's when they were using No1 Mk3's.

I guess the earlier ones may have been made from locally-produced 2A / 2A1 rifles.

That SLR in the background may also not be a real "SLR", rather by the look of the rear-sight it could be one of the variations of the INSAS (INdian Small Arms System) 5.56 rifle.

Just my Christmas cracker's worth.

Season's Greetings to all.

A video emerges of some similar guns being used for practice

I would like to see the type of baton they are evidently muzzle loading in those .303 conversions.

My brother was involved in the 1960's Hong Kong riots and was issued with a Greener 12? bore for crowd control which fired a small wooden baton.

215 grain fmj from a 18" enfield barrel be SOOOOO much more effective.
