PPU (Prvi Partizan)
We here want to tell you about another top ammunition manufacturer - Prvi Partizan. Based in the city of Uzice in southwestern Serbia, it’s one of the oldest ammo manufacturers in Europe, in business since 1928. For those of you who can’t stand mysteries, PPU means Prvi Partizan Uzice. PPU ammo is known for consistency, reliability, top performance, and versatility. It’s one of the rare manufacturers that makes ammo in such uncommon calibers as the 7.92x33mm Kruz used in the StG 44 rifle that inspired Kalashnikov for AK-47 or the 8mm Lebel, the first smokeless powder cartridge in history.
Prvi Partizan manufactures ammo for all categories of shooters, whatever they choose to use their guns for - hunting, competition, military, law enforcement, or self-defense.
