A friend just gave me 200 rounds of 223 brass that has T W 7 2 Stamped on it and I was wondering if this was Military Brass?

I believe it is and it is made at Twin Rivers arsenal. pulling that one out of my memory bank, so who knows? roger

Twin Cities Ordance Plant, Minneapolis.

Thanks for the replies, You are right, these were made at Twin River just before the Government shut the plant down. Thanks again for the information and Happy New Year!

I stand corrected .Twin Cities is correct. roger

I regularly use some with a head stamp date of 67-68,and it still works like the day it was made.

Here's another link for a guide to head stamps.
