Live ammunition refers to projectiles that are designed to be fired from firearms and are capable of causing damage or injury. This type of ammunition includes bullets, shells, and other explosive materials that are used in military, law enforcement, and civilian shooting activities. Unlike blank ammunition, which produces a sound without a projectile, live ammunition is intended for actual use in training or combat situations. The use of live ammunition is strictly regulated in many countries to ensure safety and prevent accidents. Proper handling, storage, and disposal of live ammunition are essential to minimize risks. Training with live ammunition typically requires supervision and adherence to safety protocols to protect both the shooter and those nearby.
