Seen a whole lot of brass in 37 years of pulling handle, new one on me.
Wut? Nato cross and a year? Black Ops?

probably made by a NATO approved ammunition manufacturer, how many are there? I don't know. Googled some and found same brass and question on another board http://www.survivalistboards.com/showthread.php?t=130377 Last post in this link thinks it's IMI or at least IMI ammo has the same headstamp Another link http://www.iaaforum.org/forum3/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2039 |

The IMI makes some sense as this brass came from an army base through a surplus auction that my dad picked up. I know the US military has used Israeli TZZ ammo in the past so this is the most reasonable explanation so far. The next time I see him, I will pick a few pieces up and see how it compares to LC brass. |

I would be interested when you get a hold of some of the unmarked 04 stuff if you could weigh them out and post the results |
