Which division is illustrated by practice ammunition as a typical example?

• A. Division 1.1
• B. Division 1.2
• C. Division 1.3
• D. Division 1.4

Answer: (C)

Division 1.3 covers items that present a fire hazard and may produce a minor explosion or minor projection if initiated, but do not cause a mass explosion. Practice ammunition fits this because it can burn and may generate a small blast, yet it does not have the potential for a large, mass explosion. It is not Division 1.4, which is reserved for items with only a minor explosion hazard and no significant fire hazard beyond packaging. It also isn’t Division 1.1 or 1.2, which involve mass explosion or projection hazards.
