Re: IA: Man hospitalized after being shot with "blank"
In the military we were issued BFA's (Blank Firing Adapter) to put on the muzzle of our weapon. We were also instructed not to point it at anyone as an improperly mounted BFA could actually be launched by a blank round. The point being for the nOObs in the military (those unfamiliar with firearms) that blanks can be deadly at close range.
