Hey gang,

Can you ID this ammo. Who makes it. yada yada yada.

It's listed as 7.62mm NATO, Ball M80 5 RD Clips

I.V.L 44373

Comes in a Bandoleer that holds 60 Rounds. Got it surplus in 420 Round cans.

Head stamp has nato cross with I.V.L and 68 on it. I'm assuming it's 1968.

Good stuff, but who makes it.

Thanks,

Are you sure it is not IVI? That would be from Canada. i don't show any IVL in 1968.

Yup, I believe you are right, I.V.I. 68.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

So how is there stuff, it shot fine for me. Wasn't that expensive. 420 rds for about 70 bucks.
