    M1 Garand Ammo Question

    Hello, looking for some advice and guidance.
    Got a bunch of Military Garand ammo in clips with K A on the headstamp, years vary, 70 71 or 72
    Where can I verify source of manufacture, is it berdan primed, corrosive ?
    Thanks

    According to the headstamp guide, it is made in Korea. I think it is boxer primed, but don't know if it is corrosive for sure.

      The Korean K A is corrosive. The Korean P S is not. Boxer primed.
