Opening a Chinese AMMO CAN from 1970

- Something a little different in this video. We open up a pretty grungy spam can from 1970. What will the rounds look like after 48 years? It's kind of like opening a time-capsule.
This is from the "golden age" (of my lifetime) of mil-surp when this stuff was being flooded into the country and was very inexpensive. I wish I had more disposable income back then- I could only afford to buy so much.

You just released the last known unpolluted Chinese air
Getting wood in the woods Wow thats fucked up
Lmao.
Lol
hahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahaha beat joke ever
How you know that ? those are 70s polluted Chinese air with dusts
Let's get it out on a tray...Nice!
Nice hiss!
Nice.
Alright... Cool. See ya!
*slow claps with nods of approval*
The thumbnail made me think it was STEVE
Chinese Markings
00:15 Upper Left side of can:
*56 式* ("Type 56") means that it is 7.62x39mm M43 Soviet ammo (adopted by China in 1956).
00:17 Upper Right side of the can:
*7.62 普 (钢)* means "7.62mm bore, Universal [bullet], ([Copper-Clad] Steel [Case]; AKA Bimetallic)". It is a semi-armor-piercing bullet (lead bullet with a steel penetrator) and a copper-clad steel case. Since it is the standard round, it doesn't have a painted tip like the specialty rounds (Tracer, Armor-Piercing Incendiary, etc.) do.
00:24 Lower Left side of can:
*0893-201* means it is Lot 893 from Factory 201. *8----70* means it was made in the 8th month (August), ##70 year (1970).
Lower Right side of can:
*2/1 樟 ??/69 25* means it is smokeless powder (樟 > "Camphor" > Smokeless Powder) with a tubular grain that has a 0.2mm-thick wall and 1 central perforation (artillery tubular powders have clusters of central perforations). The Batch number is the fraction after that: *??/69* , meaning Batch number ?? (obliterated number) made in 1969. The factory number of the powder mill looks to be "25".
Packing label
The piece of cardboard has markings giving the contents of the can and any lot information that could help with quality control.
04:50 Packing label (right side of the table):
*7.62 普 (钢)* repeats the cartridge information from the can lid: caliber (7.62mm), type of bullet (Universal), and type of case (bimetallic [copper- clad steel]).
There is a line of red text near the lower right edge of the cardboard: "201" is the factory number; it is followed by a string of Chinese pictograms that I can't make out.
04:54 Packing label (left side of the table): The column header *包裝* means "Packaged", *70年8月* on the line below it means "1970 year, 8th month" (August 1970). The pictograms in the column to the right of the text is probably the name of the person who packed or sealed the can. "No.4" might be the inspector's ID number.
06:22 Headstamp:
*201* [12 o'clock] over *70* [6 o'clock] means it was made in 1970 by Factory 201.
After 201 it says -(2/1)樟(40/69). That's the batch number!
norinco was making bullets from steel washed with copper and that damage the rifling

If I were you I just keep my mouth shut rather demonstrating stupidity.. Where did you hear they used children as cheap labour? or did you see yourself? I lived close to an ammo factory in 70s and 80s, the majority from neibourhood worked there. They were decent well paid job and you know what it was hard to get in. Children working there??? You are just funny
I remember those days. You could literally buy a SKS for $50. I can remember at our local gun store there would be a 50 gallon barrel filled with old wooden military rifles from around the world for less than $50 each. I got a 7.7 "Jap" Arisaka out of it one time for $30 that still had the mum on it. I wish I still had that old rifle.
just had a friend who passed left me a last ditch 88 with the mum and a bayonet.
OK BOOMER
@@BL-zi9wb Jelly?
@@matthewrinehart2367 Boomers ruined two markets while reaping the benefits of both: the stock market and the C&R market.
I bought mine for $80 back in 96. Now they are around $400. I saw one online for $1,000. If I see a surplus rifle reasonable I’m jumping on it because they constantly go up in value.
Yes I shot thousands of rounds of that back in the 90s.... it was 100% reliable..... it shot about 3 MoA in my SKS... I did try pulling a few of the bullets and replacing them with Hornady 123gr SP .311s... leaving powder etc intact. With the Hornady bullets the Sks shot just a fraction over 1 MoA..... although when you consider that the Hornadys cost more than 6 rounds of the milsurp ammo, it was for research only.
Norinco ammo is quality stuff.... like their guns, nothing fancy but they always work.
This is gun porn at its finest.... thanks
@blackzed OOOOOOH!

Sweet. My grandpa left me several. Ive always wanted to open them but cant get myself too. Thanks for showing me its contents.
Open em up!
Your grandpa sounds cool
I'd bet good money your Grandpa gave those to you hoping you'd USE them , not SELL them. But'eh what do I know?
Put a magnet on the tip of the the bullets, if it sticks. It's steel core stuff. Does a number on 1/2 inch plate steel.
In the next ten years... you'll be opening them to send them back at Chinese people floating down from the sky.

The good old days. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
wow, it is amazing, as a Chinese, I didn't even see a single round of these there. A little bit history behind it, in that era, all industrial materials like steel, copper, etc were firstly going military needs, even a good looking cabbage had to be given to the country. This is a true throwback, thank you for sharing this.
Thanks for the info

I love this different type of video. Harkens back to the old TFM days in a way. As always thanks for new content. *:)*
Really like these different kinds of more old school videos, also one of the few channels I'm happy to see and watch ad's on.
TH-cam still here after 3 years.
In 1974 a friend of mine opened one of these and found ammo and 2 wooden handle hand grenades in one box we opened 2 more boxes and they were all ammo. The dates on the cans were from 1951.
Like a cracker jack box there are surprises inside. 😉
Did you get to shoot the ammo after you got out of prison 😅
Those were the good old days. I thought that they would never end. I wish I had the money I have now back then.

That takes me back. Loved it.
Yep
God I love the old catalogs you showed. Makes me really miss the old days and wish I took advantage back in the day
Enjoyed the video. If you have any more tins like this one with ammo you want to get a long steel rod to open them and put it through both loops at once and then pull. This way it does not slip out on you again. All the wire is, is a garrote for cans so both sides need pulled at once.
Both methods seem like they'd work pretty well. I can imagine a soldier in the field using a bayonet to get in there even quicker if they had to.
Thanks for the basic physics lesson. I would give you a bit more shit about it but Jeff actually needed to hear it.
Thank you so much for showing the old ads! It really shows how much freedoms we've lost in California makes me mad but they we're cool non the less.
Yeah, that was all legal in Cal. at the time too!
I remember all too well the way things used to be here in California. I remember myself and my brother, both law-abiding citizens back in the early 80s being able to drive to the shooting range with our ARs in the rifle rack of my pickup. Now after all these years and still being law abiding citizens, we would probably be shot by law enforcement for doing the same thing.

Guys, the Eighties was the beginning of the end. Loonie lefties were already after handguns. Glocks' 'plastic' gun created a firestorm of controversy. The media machines (already left leaning then) alleged them to be invisible to x-ray machines. Thus hijacking airplanes, and bank robberies were going to be an everyday experience.
Seeing those ads reminds me that once upon a time in America you could mail order a firearm. As a kid seeing the ads for guns in the back of Field and Stream, and Outdoor Life (IIRC) delivered to your door. But that went away with the Kennedy assassination. I remember seeing a Swiss military rifle with the straight pull bolt in Sears Roebuck for $11. The K-98 next to it was $16. Couldn't convince my dad that we needed one. As a twelve year old, at my grandparents, I could take my weeks chore money into the hardware store and buy a box or two of 22s, something like 65 cents a box for long rifles. No questions asked.
My senior year we had a couple of race riots at school. Like other schools, the student parking lot had many trucks and cars with firearms, knives, and other implements of destruction. NOBODY went out and got one! The only shots fired were the police teargas rounds, which sent everybody home.
Thats been my life and how much erosion of our liberty I've seen.
Today, we have super uber boomsticks, but far fewer places to shoot them. We are far more affluent today, but a quality handgun is still about a weeks pay.
What are the young people going to think about our shooting world of today in another 50 or 60 years.
50 years ago, I refuse to believe the 70’s was that long ago
I wish I hadn't read this comment, I was doing fine in my "reality" bubble. lol.
I served in the army in 2011. We shot at the exercises with stocks of 1970-1980. All patrons replenish warehouses.
chinese ammo isnt bad at all you can thank hillory for the bans ! they ll be back
The 1970s wasn't 50 years ago as of 2018. Not quite.
I think it's come from Taiwan
The "70" means 民國,not 1970.
In wesrtern said is about 30 years ago.
For example 2018-1911 is 107,
than , "107" is Taiwan year.
Year 2022 looking back atcha!
Man if you only knew back then how crappy things would get
I used to go to gun shows, and buy 5000 rds of this stuff at a time, for as low as $200, then they banned the importation and of course, the prices started climbing. The Chinese ammo had steel cores, if I remember right, and was hard hitting.
It was a myth. It's because you could convert an AK to pistol length which made the ammo "armour piercing". Their steel core is no more affective than your standards Wolf Ammo. It was politician jargon sadly.
@@nomad155 The AK pistols are why you can't get surplus Warsaw Pact or ComBloc Armor-Piercing ammo any more. The importation of Armor-Piercing pistol ammo was banned in the 1980s (i think after Reagan's shooting). The availability of semi-auto AK "pistols" (short-barreled, stockless carbines) means they could legally be loaded with Armor-Piercing ammo. Therefore its importation was banned because it could potentially be used in a legal firearm classed as a pistol.
"Steel core" ammo is Semi-Armor Piercing because it has a steel penetrator rather than a full steel core. It can still go through body armor or a steel helmet. You can actually buy surplus Semi Armor Piercing rifle ammo (except in some states like CA or MA that ban it) because it is specifically exempted from a ban on importing Armor-Piercing ammo. Because it uses mild steel rather than hardened steel, it actually aids in hunting tough game like boar or elk. They have heavy skeletons and pads of gristle that the round can plow through to get to the vitals. Armor Piercing ammo would overpenetrate and would be a danger to other hunters downrange.
It's not the barrel length of the firearm but the piece of steel inside its center that makes it armor-piercing.
You can't get Chinese ammo (even "Lead Core" Ball) because of their steel jackets. Customs uses a magnet to test ammo samples. If it sticks to a magnet, then it might have an Armor-Piercing core and be in violation of the Armor-Piercing ammo ban.
There are also direct bans on Chinese ammo imports dating back to May, 1996. Customs found out NORINCO and Poly Technologies were trying to smuggle automatic AKs, RPG-7 rocket launchers, and heat-seeking anti-aircraft missile launchers to the Crips through Oakland. The Crips set had territory near LAX airport and the missile launchers could have been used to knock down airliners.
Keng's Firearm Specialty / Keng Imports & Exports, which had ties to Poly Technologies, took a big hit and lost most of their standard inventory and customer base due to the ban. KFS used to import those big green ammo crates of 7.62x39mm ammo in SKS clips.

A properly stored spam can, while sealed, will keep ammunition serviceable indefinitely.
AWESOME! I am 36 but grew up in the late 80s and thru the 90s in my fathers gun shop. We would have stacks and stacks of these Crates flying out the doors. You could purchase a NORINCO or POLYTECH milled, heat treated, and chrome lined bore SKS or AK. the SKS was around 90 dollars with all accessories including bayonet in a shorty or full length. The AKs were about 100 bucks more. i think we sold the Ammo for 60-90 bucks. The GOOD OLE days
Glad you weren't under fire trying to open the case!!!
Yes, it looked like quite a chore just to open one of those “ spam cans”, not to mention dangerous!!!
TH-cam is still here buddy. I'm watching your video.
I remember when I bought my first China Sports SKS rifle back in the early 90's. For an extra 20 or 30 bucks he tossed in 500 rounds of this exact ammo. It was taken out of the can but was still wrapped in the waxed paper. Cost me less than 200 bucks for the whole setup with a polymer stock thrown in and a couple of extra magazines. Had to be '92 or '93 because the stupid AWB hadn't hit yet.
My Norinco SKS was $115 and I overpaid for it. Seemed like everyone had FFL's back then and I even heard of a local Chinese restaurant selling SKS's. lol
Mine was $130 in 1992, came with 440 rounds, 20 stripper clips and the sling. Loved that rifle, it just ran and ran, never a hiccup
well if you still make videos i will certainly still be watching you in two years.

I remember the old ‘Shotgun News’! What I remembered most were the M1’s, K98’s and Enfields for just over $100.
They still had shotgun news until around I think 2005-ish from what I remember...
Think I was still finding them a few years ago. Not the same as the late 90's though. Enfields, Nagants, Mausers, P 14's, P 17's ...all for under $100. Garands for $300 or so, Carbines under $200...sigh. Was getting spam cans of 7.62 x 39 and 7.62 X 54 for under 100, 8mm and 303 Brit for around 4 to 5 per 50. Primers were $10 per 1000, 22 bricks of 500 also 10 bucks.....sigh the glory days. Still have a Big box of stripper clips and en blocks for a Garand. 7.62 X54 used to come wrapped like those with the brass stripper clips on them of 5 rounds each. Bandoleers of 303 also had the steel 5 round stripper clips on them as did the 8mm and 30-06.
@@kenredington4988 Pal of mine bought himself a surplus British Army FN-FAL. Cost him $150.00 and all matching. A 20 round magazine and sling included for that. Showed him how to strip it down, clean it and how it worked. Those days are long gone and now that same rifle is now a prohibited firearm in Canada yet we can have SKS rifles. Go figure.
I bought some of that same stuff. But if you were going hunting p.m.c was way better military ammo but the Chinese stuff was cheaper...
I remember the days this ammo was coming into the country by the boat load.
Low priced and worked every time.
I was buying 1100 round cases for less than $100.00 all the time.
I remember $80 440rd spam cans of 7.62x54r, last time I bought one at the gun show its was $170
I still have a few cans from the guns shows back in the late 80's with a price sticker on it of $69.99!! That comes out to $3.18 per box of 20. Hell, I still have boxes of primers with stickers of $12.99, and 500 count bags of 55gr .224 for $17.99... Makes me want to cry every time I go to replace some of what I've used.
No kidding. I remember in the 70's going into a surplus stores and there were just barrels full of surplus enfields and mausers. Makes me almost weep thinking about it now. lol
Bought a mkIV Enfield...$49.95.
Almost mint and only one in the barrel with the brass butt cap.
Turner's guns in San Bernardino Ca. back in 1997. Took it home and stripped it. Did an ammonia bath to reveal natural wood, then went thru the steps to steel wool it followed by staining with cherrywood and finally clear coating with wood finish. All the bands were stripped of the black coat and hand blued per gunsmith specs.
Everything was reassembled and oiled.
Seeing there were no evidence of "battlefield scars" and most likely a "parade piece", this is a showcase rifle now and I do shoot it occasionally.
Keith Lucas yea me n my step dad walked into Gibsons hardware store in 1973 and pulled a German Mauser out of a barrel n said here is your first deer rifle , he paid 52 dollars for it , rifle was taller than me , I was 12 and today at 57 I still have it ,,,
the Swedish Mauser is still my favorite rifle.
Can't beat the old military beauties. Although the Swiss beat the heck out of their stocks.
You should have been around when you could walk down Main Street USA go into a surplus store, buy the M1 Carbine in the window for $100, and walk out with no paperwork. That was the 60s before 1968. That year I bought my first 22 handgun, a Ruger Mark I Target for $57.50 in an adjacent state without incident, took it home and shot 22 LRs for $0.65 per box of 50.
Appears to be a standard Soviet/Communist ammo spam can.
i wish they sold these in australia, god i miss them. :(
My local gun store here in Victoria was sitting on a heap of them, $300 per tin which is not too bad, so a buddy and I now have about 5000 rounds between us. Ruger make a nice light weight ranch rifle in 7.62X39.
Now what I would like to see imported is cans of 54r, that stuff is way more expensive if you can find it
Lol quit playin, you’re lucky to own a knife over there.
Fun thing about gun laws, they are weird and thats putting them nicely. Cant own a semi auto .22LR bunny gun, but you can own a full blown soviet PTRD on your normal longarms license. those bunnyguns sure are dangerous.

I remember a short window in the mid 2000's when you could get a ballister or type 27 for under or about 300. They had a limited amount
of original sig p210's.....for 500....
Awesome video.
Excuse me while I cure astigmatism by smearing toothpaste on a 9v battery.

@@leonardoklausmann7972 I killt twenny Nazzies in the war with a stick of gum, a guitar string, and two small marmots.
Never underestimate the marmots.
I bought a wooden crate of Norinco 7.62x39 years ago. Like you... not one round was a dud. Pretty damn accurate too. Not sure what type of powder they used but I liked the smell of it too... LOL.
haha, yeah I am big on smells too
I've heard that old cartridges loaded with Cordite smell like peanuts when fired. Don't quote me on that though.
wrong way to open it . should put a long screwdriver thru both sides and pull.
Right.
Hi Bubbles!
Decent coment!, bubbles

China actually made top quality Ak47's known as the ( Type56 ), sks and MAC 90's because they were milled recievers.
the only two good things to come out of cans that shape...SPAM and ammo
Only one of those two things are good and it ain't the spam!
@Dave M, yup! It'll make a turd for sure. And when the chips are down and Spam and onions is all you have, making a Spam Turd is well appreciated. LOL
Ammo can porn

As long he got his tetanus vaccine shots up to date, that's OK. Lol
Yea but now I worry about COVID-19
The guys at the gun store use gloves and a respirator when handling those haha..I was like whatever it's only $3 for 40 rounds. Hopefully I'm not cursing myself at 50 years old it I'm put on my deathbed.. Best ammo ever though
My Dad purchased guns and ammo from these types of magazines. Thank you! My Dad would have loved to have seen this video!👍🏾👏🏾
Where is he?

@@1Immanuel6 I thank him for his service to his country and family. 🇺🇸
What a great treat my friend. It was really cool to see that. And to take us on your nostalgic journey was pretty awesome. Thanks!
thank you!
This was weirdly satisfying to watch. Thank you.

Now its time to see some videos on the performance of these rounds that are as old as I am, geez that's getting old LOL
remember looking at these books and gun magazines when I was a little kid and always wished to have a gun . that is before England banned guns

come to America, we'd be happy to have you
@@jhorn64 ah thanks . soon enough I will come to the USA and im gonna fire all the guns I have ever wanted to fire
@@snek2089 Not unless you got alot of cash mate
@@ddavis5708 in the UK? yeah it's either really expensive shotguns or hunting rifles that could reach 5000 pounds each . in the USA I'm pretty sure the video shows that you could have bought an ak47 for like 500 dollars . and don't forget the ammo here it's like 5 pounds a shell or 3.5 pounds a round for the hunting bullets .
My kind of unboxing video 👍
I remember the good old days in the early 1990’s I bought 15 cases of 8mm Mauser. It was dated 1941 !! 1200 Turkish rounds for $27 a case !! Haaaa that sounds ridiculous but it’s true. I still have 5 cases left it’s corrosive but it shoots fine. Still In WW2 bandoliers and with stripper clips. Those were the good old days. Around the same time period I bought 5 brand new in the cosmoline SKS Paratroopers for $99 each !!!
I was surprised how the contents were still in great looking condition considering it's nearly fifty years old. The cardboard layer and paper looked like it was printed yesterday. Also liked how you used a rendition of You Only Live Twice in the background. Great video.
thank you!
Well they made good thing quality
They ccp banned guns to peoples,,
And planning suicidal things killings millioon,
More than any Amreican shooting ever did..what a nonsense
Bought my first gun when i was 18 in 1995. A Russian SKS for $125 cash OTD. No background, no waiting period. I bought a bunch of this Chinese stuff for $2 /box to go with it. The ammo smelled of sulfur after firing it. I still own the SKS.
SoCal Dep Same here bought 2 in 93 for $119 ea .. Did some mods on one of them.. Still have both.. I hate to say it but it's the best gun purchase I have ever made.. Still functioning like a champ..
and here i am, a russian guy watching people from over the sea shooting soviet guns that i would most likely never have because of our shit gun laws (which are i think for the good for a lot of reasons, though i still hate it)

So sad I really had no interest in guns and got into them of of necessity and prepping really when I was like 40 yrs. old...now I'm almost 50. I really truly missed the heyday so to speak. Thats done and gone and dead just like our country even if most cant see it.
man these are the things I want to find in my attic
i found 2 cans in my barn before i tore it down, my dad musta have gotten several ammo spam cans before he passed.. .. i wasn't sure what it was, it was have tin sealed box... i was finding bunch of weird oddities from years passed.... opened them up and was happy to fine all that beautiful copper coated ammo...exactly like in this video!
my dad was sorta prepper fearing government take over of our rights.. looking back he isn't that far off really.. i know he has a stash/cache i yet to discover... and with over 600 acres, not sure i will.
ya that's the issue i face. i actually ran a metal detector out over one of the back fields where i suspected my dad may have stashed some stuff and i did find some interesting stuff that indicates ways something since was a good prime spot and one of the places i vaguely remember him going to time to time.. but most of what i found was lot barbed wire, nails and blobs of metal like something melted.. but i did fine a few bullets not sure exactly what type since they didn't fair too well exposed to nature for decades. i since moved about 6 feet of dirt off 2 of those back fields to another location to act as fill and sifted through much of it to no avail.. i know he has stashes of cool ammo and , he told me they exist on this property even mentioned has has some cool russian and german weapons hidden in in a bunk up on the hill (i cannot find). but unfortunately never told me where all this stuff is before his passing... and none of his friends know either other than the barn and the shed..
@@Honeypot-x9s, bummer your Dad passed before telling you where is stashed his treasures. You need to find a friendly cop with department ground penetrating radar equipment you can borrow to look over the more likely areas you think he may have hidden those gems.
It would sure be a PITA to dig a bunch holes and finding nothing but it would have been funny telling the nosy neighbors your plans for a real life Whack-A-Mole game on your property. LMAO
haha. well i am friendly with the police i did ask if they have anything, but this is a very rural area, so they dont really have such equipment, in fact they just added FLIR thermal cameras into bag of goodies recently to help locate people or animals.
i do have a few DJI drones.. inspire 2, mavic 2 pro, mavic air, and i did have a phantom 4 pro but i just sold it. all of these drones i can set waypoint missions using software and they can do it all themselves and return back on low power i can swap batteries out and start next set of missions.. i wonder if there is a affordable or even DIY laser based system i can use like 3D LIDAR system to map out the terrain. i seen results that equipment on helicopters can do with LIDAR 3D mapping they can strip away layer by layer trees and foliage and even map obvious what otherwise isn't. that's how they found ancient lost ruins sometimes is sending aircraft overhead, even tho its complete covered and walked over it many times never thought about it, somehow the 3D LIDAR mapping things from above can make it obvious..then they uncovered it. personally i would actually prefer a DIY method of getting these results..
You were wrong about TH-cam not being around in 2 years, but you were absolutely right about how fucking worthless it has become.

I remember getting those flyers in the mail back in the 1980s when i was in the U.S. Air Force. Shotgun news was my favorite as well as the others. Thanks for the memories. Grate video.
I loved Shotgun News back in the day!
That can opened exactly how i pictured a surplus ammo can from ch111na opening... lol
05:07 This ammo can contains 36 x 20-round paper packets (720 rounds). There are 2 ammo cans per plywood crate for a total of 1440 rounds. The crate has an average Gross Weight of 30 Kilograms (66.13 lbs.).
my SkS cost 89.00 dollars back in the day here in AZ Tucson gun show. wish i had bought more
$ 157 for an AK with the tax included brand new with 2 / 30 round mags and 1 / 5 round mag in Maryland in 1988 now they want them banned
@@fakenews7266 I know that's crazy. I believe we should have bought alot more but shit I never thought they would have reached the sum of money as today..
Matthew S my old man told be to buy as many import rifles I can afford. I have 20 mostly Chinese and Russian, ammo as well. I still have em. I didn’t know which ones were good, I just knew I wanted aks. I got lucky and got 4 claycos and 7 polytech legends, a few veprs and rest wasr 10/63s. I paid about 200 for each.
Bought four

Hey I remember shotgun news , that was a long time ago , my dad bought a wwll , 7mm German mouser rifle 199.99 and we still have the rifle very accurate rounds are hard to find got like 32 rounds , when we go to gun shows we look for them they ain't cheap
nice!
Are you sure you dont mean 8mm?
michael hellwinkle , yes it is a 8mm it's been in the closet for years very long gun lots of wood to almost to the end of the barrel I wen and looked , thank you for your response
Roll your own ammo :)
it was still around until at least 2005 or so. Does anyone know if its still being published?
Even after you shoot every cartridge in that case, after half an hour you will want to shoot more again. 😂
So wholesale for the sks with a FFL was $35.00 and a AK-47 $50.00. THOSE WERE NEW TOO. I miss those days and a 1,000 rounds we're $45.00 from China Sports. Steel core.
Yep, back in the day my ammo tests were done with wet packs of Shotgun News and Computer Shopper, I miss those days.
Have you looked into a Class 3 permit? It's just a $50 filing fee and 60 day wait. Then you can start shopping for old military surplus again and maybe kick your content up a notch. Anyway, keep ur head up Jeff!
be Taofledermaus. Move to non-commie state. spend tens of thousands of dollars getting multiple licenses licenses for selling and manufacturing machine guns. spend hunneds of dollars making vids. profit 10$?
heh. I know some gunsmiths in Cali and Oregon with class 3 permitting. They mainly work with antique weapons from wars of America's past. I got an uncle on the white side of my family who lives outside Chico California who is into that and has constant business. The permitting is pretty straightforward and just filing fees. Just can't be a convicted felon or on a terror watch list. Takes a little bit of effort to figure out how the state and federal regulations apply to each other, but once you got your mind wrapped around it, smooth sailing. Just don't expect to be allowed to run around with a quad turret AAA gun or suppressors in california, but honestly the only states that don't give a fk are louisiana and arizona.
MattV2099 creepin' youtube, make more vids so we can creep u bruh
working all day to make 10$ off a video is a bad business decision, brozene.
richard ryan left cali because they were being bitches about his licenses. (so he said on a podcast). IIRC they were giving him the indefinite delay on his paperwork or some shit
There were some good monthly articles in shotgun news, Neal knox..Knox... and ED. Anyone else remember?
