Surplus Ammo
« on: May 08, 2003, 04:12:19 AM »
I just got a case Of the Romanian 8mm Mauser
(760 rds) This stuff is nice!  1974 production!
Comes in a sturdy wooden crate with 2 380 rd.
cans inside. A LARGE can opener is included in the case.
"THIS STUFF IS A PAIN IN THE BUTT TO OPEN"
(But it gave me something to do last night While I
was in the basement waiting for the storms to pass.
I live in central Ga, and mother nature seems to have
P.M.S. here this week!)
Nice laquered cases with 154 gr. boat tail bullets.
Now I just Hope My Turks like it!

S.Sumner just think about trying to open that can during a war?? How else would they do it? Some of the surplus cans had a wooden pull with a wire that went around the can on three sides opened it up and you just bent the flap. The pull knob looks like a small pull start?? I guess we have it made with cheap surplus ammo available to us right now. I love it cheap guns and cheap ammo it just makes shootin affordable. Till I bring out the modern stuff I just look at $30 a box for ammo(338) and kring??
