Firearm casing with shroud

摘要

A cartridge for a firearm comprises a casing which comprises a sleeve that is mated with a base. Propellant and a bullet are contained within concavity of the sleeve. The sleeve comprises a nipple extending from a bulkhead. The nipple is flared within a passageway of the base, to hold the base and sleeve together. The base comprises a base substrate and shroud. The shroud is a ring like element around the end of the base which abuts the bulkhead of the sleeve. The shroud may provide structural strength and may be colored, textured or marked; or may hold a RFID tag.
