9mm brass ??
« on: October 29, 2009, 08:54:14 PM »
Do all 9mm US military cases have the NATO cross on the head?

Do Federal cases with FC on the head have crimped primers and are they military?

                                                      Thanks......................JH

1) Not always , as many different companies make ammo for the US Mil.

2) Not always , I have found a bunch of FC cases over the last couple years that did NOT have crimped primer pockets .

3) Maybe , most Mil Spec ammo will have a crimped primer but not always , depends on who made it .
