Abstract

The blank cartridge is for an automatic firearm with inertia breech. The cartridge case (1) has at the forward end a calibrated orifice (5) restricting the passage of the gases emitted on firing. The orifice allows the cartridge case to extend under the effect of the pressure wave generated inside it. The orifice can be formed in a cap (7) fitting in the reduced-dia. forward end of the cartridge case, and having a widened portion (7a) bearing against the rear end of the reduced-dia. portion. Extension of the cartridge case can be allowed for by annular fold, its distortion under gas pressure thrusting the breech rearwards.
