Weak, but at the same time dangerous ammunition is considered, the muzzle energy of which does not exceed 60 J. Such a cartridge after being hit in a person poses a threat to the vital organs, if in the soft tissue on the way the bullet does not have any solid barriers, for example, bones , - when hit, the bullet stops. In the worst case, it is able to break through the barrier, but at the same time it completely loses its energy and gets stuck in the soft tissue.

Features of non-lethal cartridges

Traumatic cartridges are products equipped with a rubber bullet, bimetallic, brass or steel sleeve, as well as a primer-igniter. In the process of manufacturing non-lethal cartridges, two types of capsules are used:

How to protect yourself from buying non-certified products?

In the inexperienced owners of traumatic weapons over time, there are thoughts of buying powerful ammunition, which allows to increase the effectiveness of shooting.

Under the current legislation of the CIS countries, it is prohibited to manufacture and distribute 9 mm traumatic cartridges without a license.

It is not recommended to purchase counterfeit counterfeit products, since such cartridges may contain, at best, insufficiently powerful cartridges. This can lead to a bullet in the bore of the barrel and its delay. In the worst - cartridges, too much strengthened due to the powder load, during the shooting from the traumatism can destroy the barrel and even the gun itself. This is important to take into account the owners of brittle zinc-aluminum traumatic models, since the destruction of the trunk can entail injury to the shooter himself.

Often, dishonest vendors purchase ammunition, which is sold as ammunition, intended for the security forces of special services. Such traumatic cartridges 9 mm RA. does not exist. This product can only be officially certified. These are Fort-T, AE9, PND-9P, Teren-3F and Teren-3PP.

The most powerful 9 mm traumatic cartridges to an ignorant customer are sold as non-certifications. Such a munition is made by handicraft method from a capsule shell of an idle or noise cartridge. Under the guise of "German exclusives" such a product falls on the arms counters. The fact that ammunition is illegal, you can see by looking at the marking, located on the bottom of the cartridge case. Mostly there is an inscription: Blank (English - "empty, idle") or Knall (German - "click"). Particular attention should be paid to the way a sleeve with a rubber bullet is wound. Cartridges containing these markings, initially can not be traumatic, and the presence of a rubber bullet is considered illegal.
