INTERNATIONAL CARTRIDGE CORP

International Cartridge Corp specializes in the precision manufacturing of small arms ammunition for federal law enforcement and tactical training programs. Their core capabilities include producing frangible, reduced-hazard, and non-toxic ammunition in calibers such as 9mm, .223, and 12-gauge tungsten buckshot, tailored for live-fire training environments that demand environmental compliance and safety. The company demonstrates deep technical expertise in ammunition formulation, ballistic consistency, and compliance with federal range safety standards, particularly for agencies requiring lead-free alternatives. Their specialization in mission-critical training rounds—designed to minimize ricochet and environmental contamination—sets them apart as a trusted supplier for high-volume, repeat-order programs requiring stringent quality control and reliable logistics. The contractor maintains consistent relationships with the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Justice, and Department of the Interior, supplying ammunition for tactical units including ICE’s Office of Firearms and Tactical Programs, U.S. Marshals Service, and National Park Service resource management teams. These agencies rely on International Cartridge Corp for recurring deliveries of specialized training rounds that support operational readiness while adhering to environmental and safety regulations. Operating under NAICS 332992, the company is firmly positioned in the small arms ammunition manufacturing sector, with a narrow but highly focused vertical in defense and public safety training ammunition. Their market positioning centers on niche, regulated demand rather than broad commercial or military contracts, emphasizing compliance, consistency, and mission-specific performance. As a small business structured as a 2L entity based in Reynoldsville, Pennsylvania, International Cartridge Corp operates without federal certifications but maintains a dedicated local manufacturing footprint that supports responsive delivery to federal agencies across the continental U.S. Their operational model prioritizes reliability and regulatory adherence over scale, serving as a specialized supplier for agencies requiring technically precise, environmentally compliant ammunition solutions.
