5.56mm paint

[smle2009]

Hi has anyone have any info on these rounds,I got several of these from a 100% British military source,although they are Canidian manufactured. Can not imagine the British army paint balling & they would hurt if not kill(plastic is very hard) also pink would be a bit girlie for them! anybody out there know if they are military & what they are used for?
thank Tony

When I joined in 1997, they had a round under experimantation known as the LPTR (Low power training round), tested in 5.56mm, but I never saw one and deffinitely didn't use any.

Hi pointblank0,
I have now had conformation that the British army did use these by a friend who is still serving, he had trained with them at Imber(S.P.T.A) Wilts,and that they do hurt!
Cheers Tony
