Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2018228787A1] A small-calibre projectile (10, 10') is proposed, taking the form of a solid (mass) or projectile body (1, 1') of a copper-based alloy with a metal core (2, 2'). Apart from copper as the basis, copper-based alloys include additions such as zinc and tin in variable alloy fractions. Incorporated in this solid copper-based alloy is a penetrator (2, 2') of metal. The penetrator (2, 2') is completely enclosed by this copper-based alloy. The surface of the small-calibre projectile (10, 10') may, if desired, be at least partially provided with a thin tin coating. This small-calibre projectile (10, 10') forms the basis of low-toxicity small-calibre ammunition.
