Military Arms Channel takes a look at the ZQI ammunition factory in Turkey. How their 5.56 is made. It’s very tedious and it’s apparent that it’s very good quality ammo.

Obama and Bloomburg are waging war on ammo producers and sellers. They are undermining us every way they can think of. No wonder we are suspicious of the motive. Tyrants do not want the population to be able to fight back.

Wonder if the guy got any cases of freebies? You know, a couple 10,000 round sample boxes?

Turkey is fairly permeated with German based engineering. They use a German base system of training and skilled labor apprenticeship. I have a friend here who was Turkish trained and he is a very good engineer.

Give the Turks nothing until they apologize for the Armenian Genocide.

I’ll continue with the Lake City product.

IMI - the "gold standard" in 5.56.
What's even beter, I bought it when it was cheap.

They’ve mixed 5.56NATO and 7.62NATO ammo production together with the graphics and MA Channel tour guy. At 7:00, he’s saying 7.62 but graphic shows 5.56, and soon there’s even .50cal in the pics. Nice factory machinery, though.
