In Russia, such a can with cartridges is called "zinc"/цинк (because inside it is coated with zinc to protect it from corrosion). In a standard wooden box two such "zinc" are stacked. "Zinc" are the same size for all types of cartridges, the difference is thus the number of cartridges that are placed inside. The heaviest “zinc” are those in which the pistol cartridges lie, because there are many of them that fit and they fill the volume very tightly. I know this from my own experience - I’ve been able to drag a lot of these “zinc”.

I had a can of 7.62x54r that was packed in 1946. It's weird shooting ammo that's older than both you and your father. It was neat ammo though. All came packaged in little paper boxes with twine wrapping. Inside the box 15 rounds on Izhevsk marked stripper clips. The case it's self was actually tin and the soldering smelled like vomit. I'd have liked to keep it, but I wasn't going to put up with the smell. The ammo it's self was loaded much hotter than 60s-70's production x54r I've shot. I could run the Cold War production ammo fine in my Mosin. But if I used the 1946 ammo I would get really bad Sticky Bolt Syndrome. I guess that might be down to it being at the tale end of war production ammo.

Still a very useful ammo for many countries because it's used in the RPD it's not just a mosin round. Also i feel like this probably was sold to Romania or manufactured for them during the Soviet days and all the importer knew was it was being shipped from Romania and figured it was made there.

[@WitchyWagonReal]

I honestly think that the Soviet era milsurp ammo l had from those crates was some of the finest quality bulk ammo I have ever owned. (Excluding small batch match and boutique ammo, I mean.) The packing was immaculate, and each round was a flawless clone, with high quality lacquer and sealant, and the consistency of it was robotic in both predictable accuracy and velocity (i.e., each packet being within a tight velo range). Pain in the neck, being corrosive and always having to be rinsed. My sample size was small (just a couple crates), but say, compared to the bulk Lake City stuff you buy today, that spam canned Soviet milsurp was as consistent in quality and reliability as any ammo you'll come across.

[@Sam_the_Sham_and_the_Pharoahs]

I got a crate worth too. Hold on to it. Shoot other shit because it's seen a four fold price increase that's only going higher. I have 3 different batches, a little over a crate worth (2,160rds) 1988, 1977, and 1976. If you look at the headstamp, it will give you the date code which is the last two digits of a four digit year, and a lot number. You can use the lot number and look up what the specs are on it, avg. Muzzle velocity, powder utilized, etc. I've been using 69gr red army for plinking with some 60gr Tula thrown in there. I only shoot a mag worth of 7n6 once in a blue moon. It's my shtf ammo. Lol

Looks like the ammo we used in MT-LBV 7.62 mm PKT machine-guns a couple years back in the military service.

[@RealGrayKnight]

Woah that’s so cool, I didn’t know that ammo was stored like this!

[@taofledermaus]

thanks!

[@excitedbox5705]

Yea Russian ammo is. You can go on Buds gun shop and buy them. It used to be around 450 for 1000 rounds of ak47 rounds.

[@НиколайДемидов-ь8ж]

It is still stored like that.

[@RealGrayKnight]

[@turbotroll8605]

This is the first of these videos of Russian ammo "spam cans" I've seen that specifies the weight of the can instead of the overall weight of two cans in their crate. Good stuff

[@playerunnamed2491]

in this box, the modernized LPZ, i.e. ST-M2, differs from the old LPS in that it has a sintered body made of 65G steel, before the modernization, the body was made of 25 steel.

[@mitchgingras3899]

When we were kids, we could buy Russian made .22's box of 50 for 1$. But about 5% wouldn't fire and if you shot to the sky, you could see the bullet go. You get what ya pay fer!

[@ionutmihai5172]

God what memories you bring to me! I opened hundred of cases like this in my time spent in Marines. I have water in my mouth just remembered the smell of the gun pounder , unique from AK-47. Good luck gents!

I bought a wooden crate that had two of those exact cans about 4 years ago. Came from the same factory, still have one of the cans unopened. Paid $200 for the 880 rounds, I’d say that’s a pretty good deal since a box of these rounds is about $18-$20 everywhere I can find them.

[@camshaftshaft2711]

I have half a crate of 7.62x25 from 1943 it still shoots great very accurate!

[@pavelZhd]

The "Soviet or Romanian" question is probably simple. The Ammo was manufactured in USSR. Then it got shipped to a warehouse in Romania that being Warsaw pact and all. Then the USSR ceases to exist, Romania goes into NATO and this Ammo is no longer needed so it got sold as surplus.

[@High_Caliber]

The smell is kind of like turpentine mixed with dead mice and maple syrup. Not nice, not nasty, but probably completely carcinogenic.

[@Sammie1053]

That sounds like formaldehyde

[@abalrog42]

That's really cool. I was born in the same year, so it's especially cool to see ammunition that's as old as I am :)

[@AtlasReburdened]

Right? Funny how it has that instant novelty to it.

[@scottrosenthal517]

I remember in the early 2000s buying Czech silver tip from J&G sales and it was in the same sardine cans. It was cheap too. 880 rounds for like 80 bucks. That ammo has since dried up. I still have several 1000 rounds of it. Miss those days.

[@droberts1664]

Me and my shooting buddy bought a couple cases of surplus 5.56 ammo from Romania. Stuff is awesome. Packed just like that.

[@saccaed]

Last time I saw one of those was when you could buy ammo off the internet in California.

[@taofledermaus]

Lol no kidding

[@Bot_Brad]

Yes California used to be a nice place to go in the 80s.

[@Riceball01]

Well, technically we still can, you just have to have it shipped to an FFL first, which basically kills just about any savings you might have gotten from buying it online. That is, unless you bought in serious bulk, but then CalDOK will probably take note of it, put you on some sort of watch list, and as soon as red flag laws are in place they'll send the police to your door.

[@KhabarovVictor]

@@Riceball01 Last time I checked, C&R FFL (FFL03?) was enough, so you could still ship to your house, if you have C&R license. Getting it is a pain in the ass, though

[@gvii]

I don't know, the can opener is probably easier to use than the god awful pull wire on some of the other spam cans. Though I suppose the wire opener was designed to be opened by two people at the same time. It's often a disaster if you try to do it by yourself, lol. But yes, that stuff will last darn near forever if it's unopened and there's no holes rusted through the outer can. I do wonder if they purged it with some kind of gas while sealing it, to remove any oxygen. I kind of doubt it, but I don't actually know. If they did, I imagine they would literally last forever.

[@thefieldphoneguy8254]

Yeah dealt with that when firing with the OPFOR unit at the JRTC at Ft Chaffee. We figured they had some type of fixture on their vehicles that they could lock the case into to open it.

[@koli5586]

Is it possible that the can was sourced from Romania? I hear a lot of that old ammo floated around western Europe after the cold War. Might have bought it out of a warehouse somewhere in Romania and hence the label?

[@ryanpeck3377]

Possibly Romania is eastern Europe and was part of the Warsaw Pact with the USSR so it could have been ammo supplied to Romania which was then purchased from there and brought here .

[@loddude5706]

I wonder what price it left the warehouse & hit the market at - $1 per case? Then 'ten hands' later at 100% each? : )
