A smart bullet is a bullet that is able to do something other than simply follow its given trajectory, such as turning, changing speed or sending data. Such a projectile may be fired from a precision-guided firearm capable of programming its behavior. It is a miniaturized type of precision-guided munition.
The cylinder is bored straight through with no step. Later versions used an inside the case lubricated bullet of .357" diameter instead of the original .38" with a reduction in bore diameter. The difference in .38 Special bullet diameter and case diameter reflects the thickness of the case mouth (approximately 11/1000-inch per side).
Precision-guided small arms prototypes have been developed which use a laser designator to guide an electronically actuated bullet to a target. [8] Another system in development uses a laser range finder to trigger an explosive small arms shell in proximity to a target. As of 2009, the U.S. Army has plans to use such devices in the future.

The components are, from left to right: the solid propellant, the primer, the bullet, and a plastic cap that serves to keep the bullet centered in the propellant block. Modern caseless ammunition typically uses a configuration in which the primer and projectile gets integrated into a solid mass of external propellant (originally nitrocellulose ...
The DSR-Precision DSR-50 is a bullpup bolt-action anti-materiel rifle developed and manufactured by DSR-Precision GmbH and chambered in .50 BMG. It is essentially an upscaled DSR-1 . Design and features
The QSB-11 (Chinese: 11式匕首枪; pinyin: 11 shì bǐshǒu qiāng) or Type 11 dagger pistol, is a knife pistol is designed by Chinese defense manufacturer 974 factory. for paratroopers, special forces, and special police forces of the People's Liberation Army and People's Armed Police. The pistol's designation "QSZ" stands for "'light weapon ...
The case contains the priming compound, usually in its own removable assembly called a primer. The case will also contain the charge of smokeless gunpowder, or sometimes black powder, and will be topped off by the projectile. Anti-glare: A grooved/textured surface detail found above the barrel to deflect light from affecting target aqquisition.
Bullet parts: 1 metal jacket, 2 lead core, 3 steel penetrator. Terminal ballistics is a sub-field of ballistics concerned with the behavior and effects of a projectile when it hits and transfers its energy to a target. Bullet design (as well as the velocity of impact) largely determines the effectiveness of penetration. [1]
