Damage from 55gr M193 ammunition [very graphic]











The bits of white from the x-ray are jacket fragments. Shot was evidently taken from across the street. The round didn't even hit the bone.
From:
http://www.timawa.net/forum/index.php?topic=17111.0

More information in the thread. Lots of incorrect information about ballistics innermixed with correct info too. *sigh*

Page 4 sports some other photos of M193 damage on a different victim

Damn... That must hurt...

There is a great blog to see terminal ballistic effects on humans, the site is http://www.blogdelnarco.com/
Is a mexican blog, that shows pictures and videos depicting the results of the confrontations among the
different cartels or the killings that happen everyday in Mexico.

The blog is in spanish, but anyway, there isn't much to read just some explanations about what happened and
when. Its updated A LOT, there are like 5 new posts everyday.

That blog is extremely graphic, so get in at your own risk :D

Wow. That IS very graphic. Burned bodies, mutilated bodies, gunshot wounds, blood pouring from wounds I couldn't even see...a lot of dead people. Scary stuff.

Scarier still is the thought that if you live along the southern U.S. border this is what's happening within 10 miles of you.

Yeah, I've seen this before.  Some say the information is wrong, but I don't doubt it.  A tiny little projectile going really fast can F somebody up for sure!   [img]http://www.smileydesign.n

I have been saying that you don't want to get shot period for years but for sure you want to avoid super sonic bullets no matter how small.

It looks like the entire musculature was toataly displaced and rearranged. Super sonic rounds are fucking visious no doubt abaout it. the initial cavity mustve been huge.

The damage you're seeing is not from the round being super sonic, it's from the projectile virtually exploding because it's moving so fast. Nothing everything super sonic nor every projectile design will do that kind of damage even at the ranges we're talking about.



5.56 to the forearm. Evidently it was so mangled the arm had to be amputated.

Anyone who has an 8 ball tattooed over their nipple deserves to be shot.  >:D
