Can the public tour? I can find anything on that and therefore I have doubts. I ask because work sent me to Independence, MO a month ago and I didn't even realize the plant was there. I'm sure I'll end up back there, I'd like to check it out.

I thought they closed it? US Government owned. Contractor operated. Currently ran by Winchester. Would love to have me 10,000 brand new lake city .556 cases, before the primers were crimped in.

The answer to my question is no. I'm back here in Independence with time to kill because I can't do anything until parts arrive tomorrow morning. I went to the plant and asked. Maybe I'll end up in MN one day and Federal will let me tour.
