A non-lethal spread projectile has a center pin (1) as a guide on which a
weight plunger (5) is caused by impact stop of gun-fired flight momentum
to slide from an aft end (3) to a front end (2) of a spread projectile
(4) for spreading fill material (9) in a fill bag (10) ahead of the
weight plunger over a broad surface of an impacted target (25) for
preventing damaging penetration of the spread projectile into the
impacted target and to mark the impacted object predeterminedly.
