Hey guys, Irishfag here, I know sweet fuck all about guns.

I found this spent casing in the woods today, could you tell me what kind of round it is? What gun it may have come from?

Looks like a blank. Any military training ever take part by you?
>>

Yes, there's a barracks a few miles from me.
>>
Show us the bottom of the cartridge, bud. Like the other anon said, it's definitely a blank
>>
>>30594417

Well, that's the most likely explanation. Those casings with the crimped fronts are blanks, .mil folks use them in training all the time.

>>30594417
its a blank
>>
>>30594400
Probably a .308 blank

>>30594400
It's a spent blank.

Looks like it's probably a .308 blank at that.

That's pretty disappointing.

Here's the bottom, it's really blurry, my camera is shit and it's hard to get it to focus on something so small.
>>
>>30594472
Need to know the number with the decimal in it to tell you the caliber.

Can't read it from the image.
>>
>>30594487
Looks like 5.56 to me although it originally looked bigger than a 5.56 casing.
>>
>>30594487
It's 5.56 by my eyes.
>>
>>30594400
a 5.56 crimp end blank.

The longer crimp section and the fact that you're an Irishfag tells me it was likely fired from a Steyr AUG service rifle.

If you ever end up in the US, I'm sure some fellow /k/ommando like myself would be happy to take you shooting in trade for teaching us some proper drinking songs.

>>30594487
>>30594500
I can confirm, it says 5.56
>>
>>30594523
Hey, I'll give you some just for the help you've already given me.
