Who owns the manufacturing operation of Maionchi? The Big Kahuna...like Imperial Chemicals of France...that another company used to load under.

Who manufactures each shotshell component?

Where are these shotshells manufactured?

I would assume all shotshells all come with plastic wads.

Why do the boxes have AZ-20 written on them. That reminds me of the AZOT Polish shells sold in the early 70's that were fiber wads and patterned extremely well.
AZOT was actually owned by the Soviet Union. A fired AZOT shell smelled like burnt chicken manure. I guess that is where the nitrates for the powder came from.

How large is this shotshell operation?

Does the Pierre Elliot Trudeau law of the 70's on imported ammunition continue to exist? And is this relevant to the above questions.

Can Maionchi compete with firms like Kent who give, or used to give, wonderful volume discounts to gun clubs.

Just wondering.

Thank you
