So I just bought a few hundred rounds of surplus Russian 7.62X54R and it came in those old sealed up ammo cans.
Like this.
I've seen this before, but last time I had to open one, my friend and I went at it with a screwdriver and a hammer, till we realized we didn't know which direction the primers were facing. By then we had enough of a tab to get a pair of vice grips on it and peel it open like a sardine can.
So what is the correct way to open these cans?
