Abstract

A reloadable non-lethal training cartridge is provided comprising a cartridge case, a rear high pressure chamber removably disposed within the base thereof, and a non-lethal payload portion removably disposed adjacent the forward end of the cartridge case. The rear high pressure chamber is provided with a base capable of interacting with a removal tool, such as a hexagonal shaped base capable of interacting with a standard socket. Further, the non-lethal payload portion is comprised of a base and a non-lethal payload, the non-lethal payload and base being removably attached such that one or both of said components may be reused. In addition, the non-lethal payload may be weighted, so as to increase the accuracy thereof.
