I think it's the new system where you shoot bb's with a reduced charge from standard 5.56 cases. I'm not sure though.

Atpial AN/PEQ15!
The ATPIAL is the successor to the AN/PEQ-2A.

You are correct, frangible BB's to be correct.

I am currently running the DBAL2 which is the other winner of the Ir laser competition. Army select both as the supplier where as SOCOM and Marines selected only the Insight.
I have played with the Insight, it is one amazing unit. supposedly if you aim the laser on full power, it will eventually lit your cigarette.
there is two allen screws, remove both will give you full setting on the Aptial.

Ive heard of this. We are still using the G17FX for simmunition. Bugger is that you have to use the G17FX gun itself.
This would be better! Thanks for the pic.

6.8mm Upper's work just fine with a slight degradation of accuracy past 100 meters, the kinks are still being ironed out.

Does anyone have more info on that frangible 5.56mm?
What's the manufacturer's name or military designation for it? (so I can google it)

I read something about it on Jane´s Quarterly about 6 months ago. I do not have the online subscription though......

I've used the paintball rounds....those things are ****. Some of the most fun I've had in the Army training.

It's still going through Aberdeen right now, so you'll have to wait. Hush-hush and all that.
