      Good luck getting archeologists to do this kind of pit digging, slogging, backbreaking work on the Russian steppes, just to find the remnants of an industrial war.

      Well Josh, I don't know. What do you think "archaeologists" have been doing for the past hundred years in the desserts of Arabia, the mountains of Africa and South-America? I don't think they took the 4x4 with the metal-detectors. And what these guys are doing is stupid and disrespectful to history. First, those Hafthohlladüngen looked pretty intact and although they look rusty on the outside, if the fuses are still intact and the inside charge isn't eaten, I wouldn't handle em like that. Second, why not dig a little bit further and take those crates out gently. They would have been intact. A little patience goes far. Every collector knows that. This is just plundering.

    What a great find. I really wish that the entire video would be transcribed into English so that we could understand everything you’re saying. I really hope some of the better things that you find your restoring them to save for future generations to see. Thank you for showing us what you find it’s really magnificent. I have a German 8 mm Mauser that was passed down to me for my grandfather who fought in World War II that he brought back. I treasure it and I would absolutely love to get my hands on his much ammo that you found and recondition it just for its sentimental value
