| Restocking my SHTF and I'd like to find another 1-2K of LC M193, no more than a couple of years old (the newer, the better). I want to buy from an ammo supplier, NOT an individual, but all the usual sources (ammoman, etc.) seem to have only Lot 6 or 7 available, which I'm avoiding. Does anyone know where I can find what I'm looking for? Thanks. |
No problems with it. and my Bushmaster M4 LOVES it.
I only have experience with the LC LOT#3 as that is all I ever recieved from Natchez. The brass isn't polished and looks like it's very old, but doesn't have any deep scratches or dents on them. The brass also does have some small black sealant spots on them and has some heat treating marks around the neck, but this is typical as many manufacturers don't feel it is necessary to make military ammo pretty. The "ugly" brass has no effect on the performance of the ammo. UNLESS there are extreme dents and gouges in the brass, then I would say there was a real problem. I have had no failures with LOT 3 up so far. I actually haven't heard of anyone having any real consistent failures with any Federal XM193 ammo. Have you? If so, let me know which LOT number.
