The Brown Truck O Happiness just brought my Spam Can of '50's Ammo. What a pain to open! Now I know why they suggested C-4!

The last Spam can I bought (Bulgie) the key actually worked and opened it. Miracles can happen.

I used needle nosed pliers and a lot of work on mine. The one I currently have will pose a problem. The tab is broken off so I am going to have to use a can opener. Problem is...it is one of those cans with the leather handle on it and I kinda like the way it looks! I may just order some more and keep this can as a collector.

I have a theory: The surplus ammo we're buying now is the stuff the Russians (and Czechs and Bulgarians and Poles) couldn't get open...

I personally think that seeing as though they made these things child proof then we need to get a first grade class to open them for us.

Swede, can we borrow a grandchild?
