Hi Sarge Actually the 00 and 01 stand for the country code which in this
case is stateside. Here is the breakdown. Wayne
National Stock Number (NSN)
The 13-digit NSN identifies a specific item in the DRMS worldwide inventory.
Built on the military model, itīs made up of::
the first 2 digits, the Federal Supply Group (FSG), which indentifies the
property group the item belongs in.
the first 2 digits (FSG), combined with the next 2 digits, are the Federal
Supply Class (FSC) & identifies the supply class the item belongs in.
the next 2 digits, the National Codification Bureau Code,
identifies the country the property can be obtained in.
the last 7 digits, the National Item Identification Number
(NIIN), is used by the military to control individual items in
inventory.
Example: 1234-00-123-4567
"12" FSG
"1234" FSC
"00" country code
"123-4567" NIIN
Note: Not all items in the DRMS inventory have a NSN assigned.
>Brian, I don't know what the difference is, but the 4th and 5th digits mean
>the following:
>00 means it entered the federal supply system before 30 september 1976
>01 means it entered the federal supply system after 30 september 1976
>That might help.
