Prvi Partizan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Prvi Partizan is a Serbian ammunition manufacturer. They produce ammunition in a variety of calibers in various loadings. Founded in 1928[1], they continue to produce ammunition for civilian and military consumers[2]. Their products are available worldwide, including in the United States[3]. Several ammunition articles list Prvi Partizan as one of the few sources of certain unusual cartridges, such as the 7.92x33mm Kurz cartridge used in the StG 44 rifle, and the 7.65x53 Belgian/Argentine Mauser cartridge. Prvi Partizan cartridges carry the headstamp "ППY", which are the Cyrillic letters for "PPU" in the Latin alphabet, and the company also makes commercial ammunition for export to Australia, where it is sold under the Highland AX brand.

Prvi Partizan has also formed a partnership with the Wolf Ammunition of Russia, manufacturing the "premium" Wolf Gold line.
