What do I have here? Two differnt boxes (latches), but the same ammo I hope. Are they both regular M67, just with different latches?

First one (ammoman)



Most recent (Wideners)

I didn't lol. I was just wondering if there was a destinctive year or something when this changed. Some of you guys know WAY to much about surplus ammo, and it's worth a try for more smarts

Your crate from Ammo man is manufactured by Igman (NK) in 1991 and the one from Wideners is manufactured by Privi Partisan (NNY) in 1993.

I guess the manufactures use different crates.

The first crate is "IK" or Igman Plant 1991 manufacture. The second crate is "PPU" or Prvi Partisan 1993 manufacture. Both are M67 and nice buy on the PPU ammo!

Sweet info, thanks guys. The "PPU" ammo is the Privi stuff right? Why is that a particularly good buy?

How much did you pay for each case? $245 @ Wideners?? How much from Ammoman? (i know they're both out of stock currently, just curious)

You are correct about Wideners, that price plus shipping. Ammoman was last year, so I think same price, but shipping was included. Maybe it was like $250.

I just ordered a case from Wideners a couple weeks ago. Has yet to ship.  

How long ago did you get that case from Wideners? The M67 they had for sale most recently is supposed to be Igman 80's production. Looks like you got some 90's manufacture from Privi...

Ordered March 26, on the doorstep April 10. I never got an email or anything when I asked about it. Just the tracking number when it shipped. Ammoman was way better.

Same here but I'm not worried. I have bought from them in the past and the shipping was a little slow and they don't send a lot of emails, but it did arrive in a reasonable enough time frame. Sometimes the best price means slower shipping, no biggie.

I'm not worried either. They are very up front about their shipping delays. I'm just getting anxious waiting for my Yugo
Wonder when they'll get another skid?? I should've bought more.

I wouldnt think that there is much more left in the Yugo 7,62 pipeline.  If that is the case it will be too bad.  I love that stuff.

$269+tax. Usually avoid the tax part, but pretty much the same as shipping from anyone who still has any left.

All Igman 80's production. Except for one crate- had a PK-I instead of the Igman or Prvi stamp. What factory is that from I wonder?

I wish someone around me had it for that price. But I guess I would need money to buy it then lol

"All Igman 80's production. Except for one crate- had a PK-I instead of the Igman or Prvi stamp. What factory is that from I wonder?"

The third Yugoslavian Government ammunition Factory was in Macedonia.  From memory, it was known as "Reserve Factory #1" or something to that effect.   I don't know if it survived the various wars in the early to mid-1990's, I doubt it.  The ammo made there looks exactly like the other two, other than the headstamp of course!
