  • Original Item. Only One Available. The 40mm XM576E1 High-Velocity Buckshot Round was developed to enhance close-range effectiveness in combat situations. Designed for use with automatic grenade launchers, such as the Mk 19, this round was intended to provide a widespread shot pattern capable of engaging multiple targets simultaneously. The buckshot configuration made it especially useful in jungle warfare and urban combat, where enemy forces could be encountered at close quarters. Like all deactivated ordnance, this round is Not Available for Export.

    This is a great example of the scarce XM576E1 shotgun round, which still retains the markings on the side of the XM199 aluminum case:

    CRTG 40MM
    M.P. XM576E1
    AMM. LOT MA-406-11
    10-70
    CASE CTG. XM199 EI GIB 1-14 10-69

    The XM199 Aluminum Case was a crucial component, offering a lightweight and durable housing that ensured the round's reliability under various conditions. The high-velocity nature of the XM576E1 allowed it to achieve greater range and impact force, making it a valuable asset for soldiers in the field.

    There’s also an INERT sticker on the side. This is a great example with intact markings, ready for further research and display.
