[edit] Slug? Or powder suspended in a matrix of wax?
The article was modified to say the payload was a slug of zinc. I read that the round's payload was metallic powder suspended in a matrix of wax. I find that more reasonable to think powder would lose velocity and become much less dangerous that to think a slug, no matter how deformed would become less dangerous. -- Geo Swan 04:03, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] hinges or lock mechanism?
the article suggests both, though on TV i've seen only the "hinge method" Mang 03:53, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
