I pick up 45ACP brass from the range here (military town) but suprisingly don't find much military headstamp ammo. I do get quite a range of civillian. Picked one up that is new to me "Geco".

Anyone else seen that one?

Made in Germany by Dynamit Nobel. Saw quite a bit of 9mm some time back.

What Tim357 said...made in Germany. I have a handful of 9mm rounds in the original box that I inherited with a Nazi Hi Power several years ago. The cartridges I have are OLD, I am guessing from the 60's judging by the box and 3 cent TN ammo tax sticker. bones37

"Geco" brass has been around for a long time, and is popular in Europe. I see it here from time to time.

Hope this helps.

I bought a bunch of Geco .25 ACP that I found cheap locally in little cardboard 25ct boxes. Nice stuff and better than any other factory ammo I had tried in that pistol, but it was berdan primed in the little .25.

OLD??? Hey! I was just a teenager in the '60's, and it wasn't that long ago, was it? I forget. Oh, never mind..........................:veryconfu

Sorry 'bout that mikeym1a, I am 41 (born '72) so I ain't exactly a spring chicken either.
