Frangible Training Cartridges

Simunition

Greenshield are truly frangible, lead-free, full-energy training ammunition, designed to reduce health and safety hazards by eliminating exposure to lead and other heavy metals. The bullets are composed of a patented, copper-tin-polymer compound and do not require a jacket, so splash back and ricochet dangers are virtually eliminated – the projectiles disintegrate into powder upon impact with a hard surface.
