theRU 33 Posted May 14, 2010 How in the world do you open this tin can? This is not like the russian spam can.. this thing is soldered and i dont know how to even begin to try and open it. I tried pulling on the tab but it just broke off. Any ideas? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matt6669 71 Posted May 14, 2010 plies and pull on the tabs again if i wasn't so lazy i would take a picture of an open one for you but im busy reloading and cleaning so your outta luck but trust me, pull on the top tab first and that'll peel first, then the second tab 90 degrees from the first i believe and your good to go Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theRU 33 Posted May 14, 2010 pull up to bend the tab back, or do i pull down?? thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tony357 386 Posted May 14, 2010 grab that tab with pliers and roll the nose of the pliers to peel it up.. just like opening a can of spam with the key.. imagine opening that in a gun battle.. I wonder how many troops have been hit with a spam can of ammo.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damjan 73 Posted May 15, 2010 Hello , I opened one of the Polish tins recently : Pull the tab (it will break off and grab a screwdriver and punch a small hole and work with the scredriver on the side from there . It s a pain , but the ammo was really great and clean (i had 7.62x54r) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
