You mean shelf-life of course. Your is a good question. Possibly a FMS sale and then someone stole them and sold them illicitly, or they could have been found or stolen in Iraq. These are pure guesses.

FMS sales are supposed be with countries the US has friendly foreign agreements. At best there are only a dozen of so countries that could have procured this type weapon from US. Should be relatively easy to trace.
