But in Russia, surplus shoots you!

(apologies to Yakov Smirinov)

Anyway, anyone have a translation on this? Looks like 7.62, 880 count, made in 1984? The rest is Greek to me.

Well, Russian I suppose.

Presently Lvov (Lviv) is in Ukraine. Previously it has been in Poland and Austria. That city has been around. :)
