Unidentified headstamp?
« on: July 10, 2010, 09:53:59 PM »
I have been unable to find this 9mm headstamp in any of the literature or in the gallery. Anyone have any info on this one? Thanks.
I have further information on this...

This is a 9mm casing with the LEW '06 head stamp. It was manufactured by CCI and distributed in two forms. As the M939 tracer brass case, and residual cases from the contract were sold as Independence brand ammo. Specimen shown is a reload as the original had the 82LP plated cup primers. Contact person and source of information:

Coy Getman
2299 Snake River Ave.
Lewiston, ID 83501
CCI/Speer Sr. Technical Coordinator
(866) 286-7436

Thanks,

Dr. Mark

9mm, it may be CCI used for rocket launcher and some 9mm pistol ammo. I am confirming with them now.

Thanks Mark

LEW could = Lewiston ID which could = CCI.
