Thereby the moment of self-ignition of the shell inside the weapon is considerably delayed, wherein the shell 13 can operate in the weapon at pressures P.sub.max=620 Mpa, which is two times higher than that of the traditional small arms, which makes it possible to increase the shooting energy.
[0303] Between the leading cylindrical part 29 and the rear cylindrical part 30 the ledge 31 is made. Rear cylindrical part 30 ends with a chamfer 32.
[0304] The inlet interior cylindrical hole 33 which is made in the shell body 13 passes into the middle cylindrical hole 34 which via a conical transition 35 passes into the conical hole 36 which passes into an ogive hole 37, herewith washer 15 is additionally installed in ammunition, a chamfer 56 of which bears against a conical transition 35, herewith the middle cylindrical hole 34 forms chamber 38 for the propellant 3. The tracer compound 14 is placed in the ogive hole 37 and the conical hole 36. The propellant 3 occupies the middle cylindrical hole 34. Washer 15 bears against conical transition 35 by the chamfer 59 which separates the propellant 3 and the tracer compound 14, thereby it doesn't allow tracer compound to burn out during initial stage of ignition. During ignition burning propellant 3 passes through the central through hole 55 under high pressure and ignites the tracer compound 14. Burnout velocity of tracer compound 14 depends on the size of the central through hole 55. All elements of ammunition 12, their shape and interactions are shown on

[0310] The thickness T29 of the leading cylindrical part 29 is 0.122D, where Doutside diameter of the ammunition; which is 1.5-2 times greater than thickness T.sub.swcb of side wall at case bottom of traditional ammunition for small arms, where T.sub.swcb=0.0520.078 D.sub.cb, where D.sub.cb is outer diameter at case bottom, that provides a great inertia of the shell heating; thereby the moment of self-ignition of the shell inside the weapon is considerably delayed, wherein the body 57 can operate in the weapon at pressures P.sub.max=620 Mpa, which is two times higher than that of the traditional small arms, which makes it possible to increase the shooting energy.
[0311] Between the leading cylindrical part 29 and the rear cylindrical part 30 the ledge 31 is made. Rear cylindrical part 30 ends with a chamfer 32. The inlet interior cylindrical hole 33 is made in the body 57, for an igniter block 4 or 5, which passes into the middle cylindrical hole 34 and ogive hole 37. Middle cylindrical hole 34 and ogive hole 37 form a shell chamber for the propellant 38. All elements of body 57, their shapes and interactions are shown on

[0329] During the mechanism work in semi-automatic or automatic mode the lower part 113 of the front ledge 87 of the lock frame 86 only reaches the front inclined area 99 of the extractor 95, thanks to that the extractor 95 does not work during the shooting. Extractor 95 works in extraction of ammunition only during manual reloading what improve the reliability of weapon work in general and the extraction in particular. The reliability of extraction is achieved as expanding ring 69 or magnetic extraction washer-maker 71 take part in extraction once during the ejection of the training ammunition 20 or once during the ejection of the ammunition 1 or 6 or 8 or 10 or 12 or 18, in which the misfire has occurred, and are very simple in construction. The expanding ring 69 can make up to one million opening-closing cycles until failure in operation occurs, the magnetic extraction washer-marker 71 will have been demagnetized during 15 years no more than 5% of the initial magnetization.
[0330] In order to make a shot with the help of the claimed caseless ammunition, it is necessary to have a caseless weapon, which must have at least such mechanisms as: rifled barrel with cartridge chamber, barrel box, bolt with obturator, firing mechanism with striker, hammer in cocked position, firing spring, trigger, spring-loaded sear.
[0331] Shot is made with the help of claimed caseless ammunition in such way: ammunition is inserted into cartridge chamber of caseless weapon and is locked by bolt with obturator, where the problem of gas obturation in the bolt is solved. When the trigger is pressed, the spring-loaded sear comes out of engagement with the cocked position of the hammer and the hammer vigorously rotates under the action of the firing spring and strikes the striker. Striker fires primer of igniter block in caseles ammunition by its pan, propellant ignites, gases of high temperature and pressure are formed during the ignition of propellant and igniter block, they force shell to fly out of the barrel, rifling, geting axial rotation of the shell which is needed for stabilization of shell flight. There is combustible washer-marker in front of the primer of igniter block and when the washer is being burnt, the released gases pushes the standard primer of igniter block out after the shell. Depending on the purpose, changing the shell, it is possible to achieve a wide variety of tasks in shooting; claimed for invention ammunition can be armor-piercing, tracing, training, etc. If the igniter block is non-combustible, a mechanism of the ejecting of the igniter block is necessary in the weapon.
