4.6mm x 36 ("Loffelspitz") from Heckler & Koch c.1968, for the G36 rifle (of that period). Cheers

JM beat me to it after looking at some reference materials I have to agree that it is the HK 4.6x36.

Man, we need a varsity and JV set of quizes. Some of us tadpoles would play more if we had a chance(both as a matter of time and money to buy references).

What John said, Han. Though, admittedly, until you get the references bookmarked, time is your enemy. Almost always, almost, anything that appears here can be found on the 'net. And yes, John and Chris are correct.

Wouldn't that be a brass-plated booster, MajMike?
