Headstamp info of new Latvian company “VAIROG”


Latvia has a new cartridge manufacturer which is named “VAIROG”. This reminds us of the “old” Vairogs which was the former S&B plant. As we know Vairogs made cartridges till 1945. If my info is right they made priming screws after the war and the last one known is from 1959 (sure later ones can exist).
But back to “VAIROG”, they have a registered business in the US too (sure to qualify for sales to the US govt).

There will be letters in the shield logo. If made in the USA will have VUS. If Made in Latvia will have VEU (EU for Europe)
