    • Present only items that have successfully passed inspections.
    • Provide all relevant records related to acceptance tests upon request.
    • Supply an Acceptance Official to coordinate with the Acceptance Commission.
    • Equip the facility with necessary personnel, test equipment, and suitable areas for acceptance operations.

    Modifications During Production

    • Suppliers can incorporate modifications as long as they do not affect specification criteria.

    Division Into Lots

    • Lot size is defined in the contract, typically 10,000 items plus acceptance test quantities.
    • For lots between 3,201 and 10,000 rounds, the same test schedule applies.
    • Lots must consist of items produced under the same conditions in a uniform sequence.

    Conducting Acceptance Tests

    • Random samples must be taken from each lot following the test schedule.
    • Quality assurance measures must be satisfied and documented.

    • Defects attributed to weapons during firing tests are not counted; necessary repairs or replacements will be made, followed by retests.
    • Rounds must be conditioned for at least 12 hours at required temperature before firing tests.

    Final Sentencing
