V. Packaging

56 The charger with 6 cartridges and the package of 10 cartridges are the smallest available

Packages. Packaging Details:

Common Ball Cartridges: Brown Chargers (for sport shooting while off duty: packages

of 10 cartridges with a red label)

Armor Piercing Cartridges: Purple Charger

Tracer Cartridge: Packages of 10 cartridges without a label (previously labeled

width a diagonal yellow stripe)

Blank Rifle Cartridges: White Chargers with a small piece of wood on the forward

section.

Handling Cartridges: Red Chargers

10 chargers or 6 small packages (60 cartridges) are packaged together in a larger package; 8 of

these packages of 60 are packaged together into a carton of 480 cartridges. This is the standard

package for issue to troops. Damaged packages that are not per regulation are not issued. For

field use, the cartons should be placed in boxes.

57 The packages, the cartons and boxes are labeled per the type and quantity of the enclosed

munitions, as well as a stamp with the manufacture date.

These labels will have a white heading; the colored part carries the number ‘11’ (previously 1911).

Red: Ball munitions

Blue: Machine Gun Ammunition only

Green: Blank munitions

Details:

Common rifle cartridge 11: No particular symbol

Armor Piercing munitions: White triangle on a red (blue) field (previously a

brown diagonal)

Tracer munitions: White disc on a red (blue) field (previously a yellow

diagonal)

Blank munitions: Black writing (red writing = blank cartridge for

machine gun 11 and 51 only).

58 A perfect knowledge of the charger colors corresponding to different munitions and of the label

colors, should eliminate confusion between ball and blank cartridges. For the same reason, the

white chargers with blank munitions are supplied with a wooden block that only permits the entry

of blank cartridges and excludes live ball cartridges into the same charger.

Using different color chargers or packages than that which corresponds to the appropriate

ammunition is prohibited.

VI. Handling and Storage

59 Ammunition should be stored in regulation packaging, organized by ammunition type and date of

manufacture. Unused, issued ammunition that are retired from troops and that will be restocked

should be reassembled into chargers (tracer cartridges into cartons) and in cartons. Opened

cartons should be kept and used as soon as possible, before using unopened cartons.

Ball and blank ammunition should be stored separately. If they cannot be stored in separate

storage areas they should be physically separated.
