Does anyone know what's in these? My cousin is trying to id the contents without opening them up. I think the tin with the green paint on it is 7.62x39 on stripper clips but I'm not so sure about the crate markings.
   Any help is much appreciated! |

If it's really heavy it might be X25, Tokarev.

Exactly what he said. This is Chinese surplus ammo, usually with Vietnam War dates. The Chinese were the main suppliers of ammo to the N. Vietnam Army and downwards to the V.C. You would find a little amount of small arms from the E. Bloc but for the most part the AK and SKS platforms as well as their ammo came from China. And believe me they sent out a lot!
