Geoff, I think they use paint ball guns sometimes  Roll Eyes  I've seen the colours. (Change from seeing the Light).  Also Mostly blanks but I also know on occasions they do use live so I s'pose there is a danger of picking one up.
I for one would recognise the difference between fired and un-fired but I reckon there are some who wouldn't. Remember those Guys who carried the live shells from the beach last Summer. Shocked

                             Jeez Val, that's a naughty word amongst some of the military ordnance fraternity "SCRAP"!  Shocked That scares them even more than the word "Live"!  Wink

They are big enough to be called a fraternity? Now that's scary Cheesy
Don't they realise that 99.9% is just the residue of teaching bank clerks how to fire a rifle, in Europe I can see how you could link cartridge cases to certain events but here?...........

Hi Geoff,
               aparently the military ordnance guys don't scrap anything; or verry little. I'm not an ordnance buff, but I do find it interesting to read the cartridge heads and learn a little history from them. ie.......the 1943 cartridge made in India and shipped to here. Why do that when there was a war raging in the far east?

                Ah ha; just had a thought. What date was the attack on Pearl Harbour?
