What is squib round?

A squib round is a type of ammunition that typically consists of a casing filled with a small amount of gunpowder that produces a low-powered explosion. Squib rounds are often used for training, testing firearms, or creating special effects in film and theater productions.

Squib rounds are designed to produce a realistic gun-like sound and visual effect without the same level of power or force as a live round. They are usually safe to use in controlled environments, but precautions should still be taken to prevent any accidents or injuries.

It is important to never use squib rounds in live firearms or mix them with live ammunition as they can cause malfunctions, damage to the gun, or potential injury to the shooter or those nearby. Always follow proper safety guidelines and exercise caution when using squib rounds or any type of ammunition.
