[sw282]

Bought some 357 Mag off the net. ln the batch were some cases stamped "S&W -F 357 MAG". l have seen S&W brass before but never with a "dash F". What does it mean??

The Association of Firearms and Toolmark Examiners (AFTE) is a professional organization, not a goverment agency. It has no connection with The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATFE).The Headstamp Gallery is financed by members' dues, not by tax money, and it is to assist forensic firearms examiners in identifying ammunition associated with crimes.

Thanks for the correction. I saw AFTE, but the brain thought ATFE.
