Ah!....its probably manufactured by the Ao tribe in the Mokokchung district of Nagaland.... :lol:

well its probably US made... AO stands for Allegany Ordnance Plant, Rocker Center, West Virginia.

It was set up during WWII and now doesn't seem to manufacture ammo. Instead the facility now houses the Allegany Ballistics Laboratory.
