I broke my stupid can opening tool with my Wolf sardine can. It's warped and bent to hell as I was trying to get the can of ammo open. Low and behold, the wolf ammo I bought is still shamefully trapped in the can.. lol... and my tool is warped like mad. Is there an easier way to get these open? I tried the tool every way possible and I couldn't get this thing open for crap. ***Edited<va-gunnut>*** After just finishing my AR and reviewing how important it is for nothing to happen to my gun, I pretty much decided to stick with m193. For future referance though, I'd like to know how the hell you get these things open... at least I know this thing would survive even if zombies were gnawing on it  Anyways, I'd prefer NOT to ship it, rather just have a person to person cash for ammo hand off or something, and if you aren't too far I don't mind driving it out to ya, or maybe meeting you at a range for an outing. I could include the tool, but.. I dunno you'd be better off with a fingernail file lol Please list any items you wish to trade or sell in the EE. Thanks, va-gunnut |
a big knife? Well I have a sog seal pup, but I dont want to bust a 50$ knife on 50$ worth of ammo, and not get the ammo out! :) Can I just use a kitchen knife to pry it open on the corners or something? I haven't even taken my AR out yet. I've been too busy to find good range time. Maybe I'll just say - hey, free 500 rnds of wolf to any WA arfcommer who wants to go to the range with me and show me the ropes ;) |

Back in the Navy, I used to see the Mess Management Specialists (MSs)* on my ship open big-assed industrial cans of coffee with a big-assed kitchen knife. Just stab the rim of the can where a can opener would normally go and repeat. Have you tried a can-opener? Maybe the hand-cranky type in the kitchen? P-38 USGI can opener? Adapt, improvise and overcome.  * Nowadays, someone decided that MSs could improve their self-esteem by being called Culinary Specialists (CS). Yeah, right! |
Bah!!! *begins to play song* sooo far away... doesn't anybody stay in one... place anymore... |
Awwwwwwwww. *Sniffle* Music even! Allrighty then!- So tell us how you have beaten the can into submission and maintained your dominant status over inanimate objects. C'mon....we're waiting!!  |
