[Milsurplus] ART-13 DY-17 U10?

[Kenneth G. Gordon]

Others here will have more, and more accurate info, but as I remember it, there was some 
discussion on this very topic some years ago.

The insert can swell over the years, making it almost impossible to remove.

I think either or both Dave Stinson and Robert Downs were involved in that earlier discussion. 
Maybe Mike Hanz also.
