This Cold War-era Warsaw Pact 5.45mm drill round is a compact, eye-catching piece for collectors, museums, film props, and educational displays. Designed as a non‑live training round, it replicates the weight, dimensions, and external appearance of service 5.45mm ammunition used by Warsaw Pact forces, but is completely inert and incapable of firing. The round shows period-appropriate finish and patina, with visible markings and manufacturing cues that reflect its origin as a drill/training item rather than live ordnance.

Drill rounds like this were used to teach safe handling, loading procedures, and weapon function without the risk of live ammunition — making them especially valuable to historians and reenactors who need authentic-looking, safe examples. Compact and durable, this piece displays well on its own or alongside other Cold War small arms memorabilia (magazines, chargers, crates).

Because it is inert, the round is suitable for hands‑on display, film and theatre use, and secure educational demonstrations. It is supplied as a collectible item only and should be handled responsibly and stored safely. A tasteful, historically resonant addition for anyone interested in late‑20th century military history and Warsaw Pact small arms equipment.
