ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a process for mechanically plating small arms projectiles with a particulate plating metal to form jacketed small arms projectiles. The process comprises agitating a slurry comprising the small arms projectiles, an aqueous solution of a strong acid, a plating agent and the particulate plating metal, thereby producing a jacketed small arms projectile having improved lubricity characteristics and in less time than prior art methods employing electrodeposition to form the jacketed small arms projectiles.
