Jimmy Reb, SASS #54804 Posted September 26 Share Posted September 26 I was given a bag of 38 spec. brass. when sorting I ran across some with a unusual headstamp. 1 side has 38SPL and across from there something that looks like arabic writing. Any ideas who makes them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Reb, SASS #54804 Posted September 26 Author Share Posted September 26 very similar marking. I would post a picture, but i honestly don't know how. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
July Smith Posted September 26 Share Posted September 26 (edited) This wouldn't happen to be Browning brand ammo? They put their Buck symbol on the headstamp and if you are looking at it sideways or upside-down it can look a little like a foreign language.

Doc Moses Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 That is the Hebrew letter 'tav' on the right and a 'tzade' on the left. Must be Israeli. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
