I've only been reloading since earlier this year and have purchased several different manufacturers of ammo for my 9mm. While reloading, I noticed a headstamp on some of the brass marked G F L. Can anyone tell me which manufacturer this is? Most of what I bought was Blazer, Federal, Remington and PMC.

I recommend googling "cartridge head stamps" or go directly to "cartridgecollectors.org/headstampcodes.htm" Literally hundreds of alpha/numeric codes and points of origin. Your PMC is some of the best brass I've found from Eldorado Cartridge Corp., Colorado, but made in various places not in the U.S. CBC is also decidedly heavier/thicker walls (.38 spl) made in Brazil.
