45 ACP CUBA Stamped
I have a 45 ACP casing that has "CUBA" stamped on the bottom.

As to origin, I would assume the obvious Smiler
But does anyone know when these were produced?

I also have some 38 Special brass stamped MDPD, but I'm not sure if it might be a police department issue...

Thanks in advance,
Mark.

So, does that place fall under the embargo, as well? Big Grin

Does any one else remember the movie where Ernie Kovacs plays police chief of Havana ? He carried a 1911 with custom grips with the flag of Cuba on it. "Our Man in Havana" 1959 , Alec Guiness
