Improvised Munitions Handbook TM 31 210

Description

In Unconventional Warfare operations it may be impossible or unwise to use conventional military munitions as tools in the conduct of certain missions. It may be necessary instead to fabricate the required munitions from locally available or unassuming materials. The purpose of this manual is to increase the potential of Special Forces and guerrilla troops by describing in detail the manufacture of munitions from seemingly innocuous locally available materials. Table of Contents: Explosives and propellants (including igniters); Mines and Grenades; Small Arms Weapons and Ammunition; Mortars and Rockets; Incendiary Devices; Fuses, Detonators & Delay Mechanisms; Miscellaneous. The manual has many pictures and is written to make understanding easy.
