The conversion bolts must include rim fire primer fail-safe measures that prevent the discharge of a standard center fire Live 5.56mm cartridge. The rim fire primer fail-safe measure must be designed so that in the event a 5.56mm Live cartridge is chambered and the trigger is pulled, the conversions offset firing pin will strike outside the primer pocket of the 5.56mm Live round. This makes it impossible to detonate the Live cartridge in the converted weapon system. 2.1-158 Infantry requires 5.56mm M249 weapon conversion bolts that adapt the weapon systems to fire 5.56mm linked SAW man-marker rounds. The conversion bolts must include rim fire primer fail-safe measures that prevent the discharge of a standard center fire Live 5.56mm linked cartridges. The rim fire primer fail-safe measure must be designed so that in the event 5.56mm Live linked cartridge is chambered and the trigger is pulled, the conversions offset firing pin will strike outside the primer pocket of the 5.56mm Live linked round. This makes it impossible to detonate the Live cartridge in the converted weapon. 3.1-158 IN requires man-marker face masks and ballistic goggles that protect Soldiers eyes, face, and throat during non-lethal force-on-force man-marker training. The face masks must allow full range of motion and unrestricted hearing. The face mask and goggles must be of breathable construction to allow airflow and prevent fogging.
