60mm M69 Practice Round for 60mm Mortars- Affordable Training Solution
Product Overview
The 60mm M69 Practice Round offers a cost-effective, realistic training solution for live fire. Compatible with any 60mm mortar and fired using our M4 ignition cartridges, this round allows for practical training without the need for additional components like obturating rings, spotting charges, or dud plugs. Available individually with a protective fiber tube or in a discounted can of eight, the M69 Practice Round provides an economical alternative to our TRUMP rounds, allowing for extended training exercises at a reduced cost.
Historical Significance
The M69 Practice Round was designed to meet the need for safe, affordable, and realistic mortar training. Used extensively in U.S. military training since its introduction, the M69 allows soldiers to practice firing, targeting, and handling 60mm mortars without the risks associated with live ordnance. Its use with popular mortar systems like the M2 and M19 has helped generations of soldiers develop precision and skill in battlefield scenarios. With its inert design and close replication of live round handling weight, the M69 remains a reliable tool in live fire training or reenactments.
Cost-Effective Alternative to TRUMP Rounds
While the M69 Practice Round offers a more affordable option compared to our TRUMP rounds, it does not provide a loud report or visual reference (such as smoke/debris, sound, and crater) upon impact. This means that while the M69 is ideal for training on firing mechanics and accuracy, it lacks the feedback that TRUMP rounds provide for precise impact identification and recovery for reuse. However, for those focused on cost-effective training and extended practice, the M69 is an excellent alternative, offering durability and consistency without requiring obturating rings, spotting charges, or dud plugs.
Superior Craftsmanship
Manufactured to military specifications. The 60mm M69 Practice Round is built for repeated use, delivering the same size, weight, and aerodynamic performance as a live mortar round. Its robust construction ensures long-lasting durability, making it ideal for extensive training sessions.
