Nammo-Pocal

Nammo-Pocal is a Pennsylvania mortar-ammunition producer within Nammo's U.S. defense business. Nammo identifies the former Pocal operation as a specialist in non-lethal practice ammunition, with Moscow and Scranton, Pennsylvania production sites, and U.S. Army sources connect the Scranton operation to M769 full-range practice cartridges and M751/M775/M781 mortar practice fuzes.

The Nammo-Pocal operation grew out of Pocal Industries, a northeastern Pennsylvania manufacturer that Nammo says had been designing and manufacturing mortar training ammunition since 1981. Nammo acquired the business in June 2013, and its public location pages describe the Moscow and Scranton sites as producers of non-lethal practice ammunition with precision metal-parts, CNC turning, assembly, factory automation, test, and inspection capabilities.

For U.S. mortar training, the public record ties Nammo-Pocal most clearly to practice cartridges and practice fuzes rather than combat-use claims. The Army's PEO Ammunition portfolio lists Nammo-Pocal in Scranton as a load-assemble-pack contractor for the M769 60 mm full range practice cartridge, while a Defense Department contract announcement records a Nammo Pocal award to manufacture, test, package, and deliver M751, M775, and M781 point-detonating practice fuzes.
