cavalry Posted June 6, 2023 Report Share Posted June 6, 2023 (edited) Has anyone tried 100gr frangible ammo in the MP40? Did it work? I am worried about the shape of the round causing feeding issues. And the weight might cause cycling issues. Tried searching but all I found was COD posts. Edited June 6, 2023 by cavalry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you shoot frangible ammo when the real stuff is so cheap? Does it require any type of modification in order to make the gun cycle? And most importantly, where did you find the frangible ammo? Cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am thinking some frangible ammo can save me needing to build an expensive, time consuming range. This is not about ammo cost obviously, it’s about range area prep time. And guess how much sweat that will cost me. It ain’t 60 cents a round that’s for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
