“Blanks ammunition is sometimes necessary”

If it’s a just a blank then it’s not ammunition. Ammo is for killing and wounding or just hitting a bulls-eye...or for Albanians and Arabs to shoot into the air during wedding receptions and funeral wakes.

Why don’t Albanians and Arabs use blanks when they do that sh*t?

Real ammo is probably cheaper and more readily accessible in that part of the world than blanks.

Have you ever watched Cowboy Mounted Shooting? Real guns with blank ammunition hitting target balloons up to 15ft away.

A prop gun is a real gun loaded with blanks...which can kill’ya if pointed at a vital area at close range.

Take a gander...I think this will be self explanatory.

Blank Ammunition is proper and accepted terminology when speaking about motion picture sets, special effects, set safety rules and procedures, as evidenced here:
