selected from ballistic samples), 5 assembled cartridges for sealant tests, 10 sets of unassembled
componentsfor dimensional and visual examination, and a quantity in accordance with 4.4.2, i.e.,
cartridges assembled without the igniter and propellant charge for primer sensitivity test. The
first article sample shall be manufactured using the same materials, equipment, processes, and
procedures as used in regular production. All parts and materials, including packaging and
packing, shall be the same as used for regular production and shall be obtained from the same
source of supply. When it becomes necessary to make a change in either the primer, propellant, or
igniter lot after initial production, 12 assembled cartridges from the first production lot
