Method of making spin stabilized discarding sabot projectile

摘要

A method of manufacturing a spin stabilized discarding sabot projectile comprising the steps of preassembling a subcalibre cylindrical projectile in a full calibre cylindrical pusher, installing the subassembly in a two section injection molding machine with spring biased pusher locator and spring biased projectile nose locator for precisely holding the subassembly aligned with a primary axis, following which plastic material is injection molded about the projectile. Surplus plastic material may be removed as by machining and a noise piece may be added.
