I can hear it now "tell the enemy to piss off for a few minutes, I cant find the bloody can opener".

I don't know why I like ammo unboxing so much, this is just so satisfying

I don't know if you find that interesting, but I grew up in Bulgaria before moving to the US, and I grew up knowing there was one of these can openers in one of the kitchen drawers at home. At the time, I did not know where it came from until later on in my life my dad told me these came from the ammo cans and he just used it in the military and brought one home. It was the backup can opener and used where conventional openers failed.... It was crude, same color and just worked. One of these days I need to find one, but I don't currently own any 7.62x39 or 54R guns so I don't buy surplus ammo, but I'm sure some day, I will find one and will be reunited with an old friend :-)

The history of this can and many like it is amazing. When I am opening them I try to imagine what the world was like back then. What the people looked and sounded like in the factory. If only the ammo could talk. New doesn't offer you this type of experience.

7:03 Brown paper packages, tied up with strings. These are a few of my favorite things.

where is Steve? "Nice hiss" :D

1:41 Here's what I see on the paper. Top Line "ОШИНОВЩИК" just translates into 'Oshinovschik' meaning Ammo Count. "KOHTPOЛEP OTK" is saying 'Inspector OTC' so i'm guessing just an inspector's number of ID.

The first word means the person who put the amunitions in the small packages and in the metal boxes and the other word means the person who controlled the quality. It is amazing quality, not like in 2004 when I was working in another factory in Liascovets, Bulgaria...

MMMMM, surplus. I absolutely love everything surrounding the Mosin and it's ammunition. I recently cracked open 6 different spam cans and did some comparisons. It's interesting to see the differences in varying years and armories.

Showing people every single detail makes your video amazing

Some of the ORIGINAL [pre 1950] 'spam' cans had an actual key on them... It was hit and miss because some times the strap would break, so they went to the lever can opener for reliability.

Thanks. У вас наши патроны доступней чем у нас ))) это круто. Я все хочу и не могу собраться и купить СКС. Спасибо за видео.

Nice good looking ammo and containers. The excellent condition Ammo Spam cans can be used for storage compartments for shooting hobby- workshop items, just use pliers to crimp down on the sharp edges. The Cover makes a good trivia souvenir for mounting on the wall of a Gun club or bar.

Dude love the unboxing videos Do more from all around the world if you can ♥

Can you imagine trying to open one of these spam cans with that crazy tool in the middle of a battle? Great video as always! Thanks for fast forwarding as necessary. :)

Sir in 2018 what would be a fair price for a 880 round create of this ammunition?

Wow, that's amazing, i've never saw how Eastern countries pack his ammunitions. Nice video!

Just bought a crate of 880 rounds "...from Europe" surplus 7.62x54R from SFRC today. Took advantage of their 10% off "boxing" promo. Based on what I could gather from CGN, I'm guessing mine are from the Czech Republic. Nice video, thanks for uploading!

Unboxing ammo boxes and creates is so therapeutic!!😊

i was just watching one of your videos and you added a new one,,,thanks great work.

7,62 ЛПС гж (ГАУ - 57-Н-223С) - cartridge with a lighter bullet with steel core and bimetallic brass.

For my SVT40 I prefer the "LIGHT" rounds ie 150ish gr, but I'm hitting tgts @ 500+m

Brown paper packages tied up with string, these are a few of my favourite things.

And their gone. This stuff is at the end of it's run. I have two crates and need at least one more before I retire the Mosins to the SHTF stockpile.

Man this makes me really miss those good ole days. I currently have 6 sealed cans of this light ball Bulgarian stuff, 5 cans of heavy ball 1950s production and 5 cans of light ball 1980s genuine Russian stuff. I used to loved to stock pile these cans at gun shows or online it was so plentiful and cheap so much fun to shoot and collect. We gotta make what we have left last long as we can.

nice vid! i got some PPU 54r ammo after seeing your positive review and they were great! unfortunately, non-corrosive 7.62x54r ammo is drying up these days and am considering using corrosive surplus stuff. what is your advice on cleanup afterwards? there are so many conflicting methods out there and I want to hear from someone who has nice firearms and actually used corrosive ammo :) thanks in advance!

the old can openers one can get for the kitchen cut out the top of the lid and are nasty after using... so... I started looking for can opener I would never have to wash. What I got was can opener that cut the lip of can & when I done... I have a lid for the can that fits perfectly so well fine it looks like the can was never opened. I wondering well that would work on your ammunition spam in can.

Thanks for the Xmas stocking stuffer idea for 22 of my friends and family.

Is the bulgarian ammo woth the $60 more than a creat of russian? Two new svt 40s to feed

I imagine all the spam can stuff is corrosive primers correct?

I have one of those side can openers and it's great for making them have a top that sits back on like it was still sealed.

that stuff shoots great..no mis fires from all I have shot so far

I've seen a few videos like this and I have always wondered...how does the stuff shoot? I mean if the manufacture date of this is 1971 and you opened it in 2013...how did it run?

yes, another can opening video, it is so enjoyable! Especially that hiss :)

The stamp doesn't lie. I saw this factory it even smells the same.

I have a case of this exact stuff, each bundle of 20 rounds wrapped in brown paper with string. I had a little dated info sheet inside translated by a Russian linguist, and she confirmed it was Bulgarian. Mine was packaged in 1954, and looks brand new. Corrosive berdan primed of course. A couple of cans I bought online were missing the opener, which was irritating.

Where can I find this ammo? I need the cartridges yes, but mostly I want to “uncrate” and open the cans now too

Great video--thanks for sharing! Glad to see you didn't get badly cut opening that can. Those babies are really sharp. Ask me how I know that....

Where did you find ammo. been haveing a hard time locating any.

New to 7.62x54r for a newly acquired Mosin M44. It came with a tin identical to those shown in the video. I've looked at several "decoder/translator" vids and not heard/seen............. What grain are these? 147? 148? 149? 174? 185? 203? etc etc...? And what symbol indicates this? Thanks for the help World!

Are those forged cases? I don't think I've ever seen such a solid end cap on a round of rifle ammunition before.

This chanel is perfect for a firearms dealer.

tell me how well this works in the mosin eh I may pick some up even though I have a few crates of russian LPS laying around

For which gun is the bullet?

how do you time warp like that??

Nice hiss

Just had 10 cans imported to Australia of 7.62x39 good price for today import from Russia and great quality ammo.

Nice. I haven't tried the Bulgarian stuff. Probably never will so thanks for the viewing

That is like opening a can of history......

I want a wood crate of Bulgarian ammo sooooo bad! I use to live there and it would be a great souvenir to keep. But all the places I can find aren't shipping Bulgarian stuff in crates.

Oh this is way better than opening mre’s from other countries 😁

just bought 3 crates from classic firearms.. 2 days ago.. its the bulgarian circle 10 stuff.

from where did yiu buy those?

Who did you buy this off of? Thanks for the video was cool!

In ever understood the markings military ammo. What defines 7.62 x 54 - 7.62x39 - 7.62x25.

I have the exact same opener in my kitchen for canned foods.

Great video man. I really enjoyed it.

Do that w/ the main can. Again, woks great and stands up to the chemicals.

Упаковщица - female packer (for cartridge wrapping) Навесчица - female powder measurer Укладчица - female packer Закатчик - male canner.

What was with the silver tip was that steel core or possibly tracer markers?

You did an uncrating that's uncanny

and in germany the box will opened from the state which will mark EVERY single cartridge. sooo no opening fun for germans - but i forgot we dont have fun in germany

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_military_headstamps

Where do you buy these from ? Pretty cool for set design and staging.

Brown paper packages tied up with string.... these are a few of my favourite things.

Those spam cans are in EXCELLENT condition! Usually when I get them they're half rusted hunks of metal. The ammo is always protected, though. Another enjoyable video.

Oh the good old days!!!

How much did it cost

I had a can of russian 5.45x 39. Circa 1982. Found a bug thats been sealed up since then.

I've done these ammoboxes in finnish army for practiseshooting and boxses where samekinda, but older russianones with pulltabs.. Just open the "spamcan" ..

I have the exact spam can....how much can i sell it for?

You only have to open two corners and their side just enough to pull back the lid to access the end row of ammo..

Didn't know my country manufactured that much ammo

Now this is what i called UNBOX THERAPY

How would one open one of this in the field without a screw driver...

how do you get your hands on this shit like really

Does some one know how to get does rounds in scandanavian? Or some company that shipps to sweden

Perfect shape.

Damn it Dyatlov, what took you so. long? war is over.

This ammo is made in Bulgarian factory Arsenal in Kazalak. Most of the signs during the soviet times on the cans of ammo were in russian. I know that because I am from Bulgaria and my father was a colonel from Bulgarian navy. I've been opening such cans with 7.62x39 and I know the feeling :) :). Unfortunately now the low does not allows me to have such a quantity of ammo for may arsenal rifle. Good for you and enjoy shooting on the range. :) :) :)

how did you bought them ? shipment allowed to USA ?

Will a regular can opener work just wondering

How to buy this ammo box??

How do you find the stuff for purchase?

You would not believe, but we still have some candy boxes with similar tags inside reading Упаковщица or Пакувальниця (in Ukrainian language). Some habits just would not go off. The example is candy named Sunny Сhaplet, I just bought recently for my son.

For what gun are those?

where do you buy these?

It looks like a PK russian machine gun bullets. The packaging and opening is so satisfying. 👍

did you buy this from Cabela's ?

We're can I buy these at??

That has to be the most time consuming way to open ammo tins... Thank goodness the solider wasn't in a hurry

i want buy one of this box

NEX TIME just cut 1/4 of the length from both sides then you can lift the lif up get a few boxes out as you need and so on then flip it back down and duck tap it using the same can - unless you have an ammo canister that is best for storage - but this way you keep them al in the metal containers safe and sound

Its like opening a Bulgarian feta cheese

Fill those crates and some SPG warhead crates with soil stack them up and you got yourself a bunker.

Is it corrosive primer?

Do you watch Deadliest Catch? You sound like Captain Wild Bill Wichrowski.

Nice! Thanks for your video.

I seen a video recently where a guy cracked open a can from 2011. Has anyone else found any milsurp this new?!

Can you sell me that only wooden ammo military box ?
