I saw that earlier today.

I just cringe watching them "measure" out the powder charges. I mean, even the weakest pistol powder compressed like that has got be sending pressure through the roof! That must be +P+ open-bolt SMG ammo. :o :shock: :scared-eek: :scared-yipes: :violence-uzi:

I was able to grab a good screenshot. Headstamp is "WCC", "024" and a deep dimple. Doesn't have "9mm". Western Cartridge Company? Maybe the dimple is intended to be the NATO stamp.

I would have thought it would be a much more automated process...are these guys really fingerprinting our WCC cartridges or is that just a Pakistan facility?

I’m guessing this is a Pakistani knock off operation of some sort. It’s kind of impressive, but you have to wonder about the powder charge.
