Small arms and ammunition gages-continued

TB 750-25

(11) The gages should be wrapped with VC1 treated paper (MIL-3420). If it is

not available, any clean, dry packaging paper may be used. Tape the paper in place. Do

not put tape (PPP-T-76C) on the gage. After wrapping, the gages must be carefully

cushioned. Cushioning material may be plastic (PPP-C-795) or cellulose (PPP-C-843).

Used cushioning material may be reused if it is clean and dry. Place the wrapped,

cushioned gage into a fiberboard box (PPP-B-636J) of appropriate size. Add more

cushioning material if necessary to make a tight pack. Tape the box closed. Paper tape

(PPP-T-76C) is strong enough, but better tapes can be used.

(12) Regular military identification marking required by MIL-STD-129M must

be applied to each package. This marking includes NSN or part number, quantity, and

unit of issue.

(13) Groups of gages may be shipped under one document and identified as

"multipack" when appropriate. The shipping document should contain the following

note: "These gages are to be checked for accuracy and returned, if serviceable, to this

unit." If multipack procedure is utilized, a packing list (type optional, DD Form 1750

Packing List) shall accompany the shipment with sufficient copies for use as control

documents by both shipper and recipient.

(14) Each supply depot responsible for issuing small arms and ammunition

precision measuring equipment and/or gages must ensure the following at the time of

shipment:

(a) Each gage will have a DA Form 3023 filled out.

(b) The DA Form 3023 contains a Defense Contract Management Command

(DCMC) stamp in the lower right portion of the large center block.

packaging data sheet.

(15) Gages received at user level without a DA Form 3023 will be returned to

the issuing depot. The supply depot:

(a) Replaces the deficient gage with another, properly identified, certified,

and accompanied by its appropriate DA Form 3023.

(b) Forwards the deficient gage and a DA Form 3023 to the appropriate

inspection or calibration facility for verification and return for placement in depot

stores.

(16) For gages that do not have model numbers, drawing numbers will be used.
