The paper examines the process of creating cartridge case production at the Admiralty Izhora Plants, which was an important part of the rearmament of the Russian Navy with quick-fi ring artillery in the last decade of the 19th century. The work is based on the 
historical sources contained in the Russian State Archive of the Navy, which were used for the fi rst time. The paper reveals the problems that the Naval Ministry and Izhora Plants faced in solving such a diffi cult task as the creation of a branch of military produc-
tion new for Russia, refl ects the diffi culties of interaction between the department, the plant, and a foreign company, to the help of which the Naval Ministry resorted. The conclusion of the paper is that as a result of hard work in the period from the end of 1891 to 1897, mass production of cartridge cases was created at the Izhora Plants, which, however, did not fully meet the requirements of the Ministry in relation to the quality and the output of manufactured products and needed further improvement.
