How do I correctly open a sealed tin ammo can??

Cyrano · 07-31-2009, 09:02 PM

AIM Surplus is currently selling 147 grain 7.62x54R by the 440 round spam can for $90 bucks plus shipping. But they take all the sport out of it - they throw in that pea-green can opener!

texnmidwest · 08-01-2009, 05:36 AM

The can opener is only given when you order 880 rounds. So the sport is still on!

Hmmmm, giant slingshot made from bicycle wheel inner tubes shooting spam can into a brick wall?

People do a doubletake at work sometimes, when I bring up my company log-in and they see my wallpaper. Everyone else has pretty sunsets, beach scenes, snow-covered mountains, etc. This is what I have.

Happiness is a warm open spam can.

You realize that if you translate the Cyrillic writing on a Spam can it reads

"Whoop Ass: 1 can, Industrial Strength 7.62mm"

I haven't had a tab break off on me but one time, and that can opened readily when I used a pair of needle-nose pliers like a key on a sardine can. I've found that with the Bulgarian cans, the trick is to work s-l-o-w-l-y when you are going around the corners.

I don't think Cyrano understands the awesomeness of this thread...he is actually trying to offer sincere help. That is not how we roll. LOL
I think a sawzall would open it up...just don't cut too deep. whiiiirrrrrr....BOOOM!

Think this thread's a joke?

The guy who made that video lost his right hand in a spam can accident.

He lost his vocal cords too....but that's another story.

I need info on numbers on my weatherby 300mag. numbers are vx45721

gandog56 · 08-14-2009, 02:23 PM

So why do you expect answers in THIS forum? This is for Mosin Nagants, not Weatherbys

Rifle_Shaman · 08-15-2009, 02:13 AM

Ive melted lead soldier with a bic lighter before so taking a good hair dryer or a weaker heat gun to the seal would make it more pliable. But wheres the fun in that when you can just back over it with a truck? Im sure the can getting massively deformed and mangled will force it to give up its goods. Just dont try that with the ladies..... The law tends to frown upon that short of thing..... With good reason, you sick tickets...

paynetrain · 08-20-2009, 05:08 PM

You know, Ill bet if Billy Mase was around, we could come up with a handy gadget that opens spam cans, has a range finder on it, can check the firing pin depth, and can be used to disassemble your mosin nagant and it would sell millions!

TinCan Assasin · 08-21-2009, 12:50 AM

But wait, There's more! Not only do you get ONE Spam can opener for 3 easy payments of $19.95, You get TWO! You also get this Ginsu Knife Set, a Sledge-O-Matic, A Honer Harmonica, and a bottle of Oxy Clean! WHAT A BARGAIN!

Spam Can not included, limited time offer, Estate of Billy Mays waives all liability for the us of the Spam-O-Matic, etc.

You do know that Billy Mays didn't create the crap, just sold it?
