US Army Switching to Environmentally Friendly Bullets

The U.S. Army is taking the expression "get the lead out" quite literally and switching to lead-free, environmentally-friendly bullets.

The Army's Picatinny Arsenal is working on a "green" version of the M80A1 7.62 mm bullet, which troops are supposed to start being issued in 2014, according to an Army press release.
