Cartridge Cross Section

Photographer Sabine Pearlman photographed over 900 cross-sections of various cartridges, with a small sampling available as a portfolio on her site. From left to right, the cartridges featured above are a 7.62x51mm plastic short-range training tracer, 7.92mm Mauser, and 6.5x55mm wood bullet blank. The cartridges were photographed in a Swiss WWII bunker in October 2012.

Still not sure on the designation, so for now, this remains an MV-22 which in and of itself is ridiculous for a Marine aircraft to carry the M prefix, long used for Special Operations aircraft.

How Did I Not Have One Of These?

The reason I never had one of these Entertech water guns is because I was already in the Army by the time they came out. But, if they had them now, I’d get the RPG.

Thanks Tyler!
