  Was that 5.56MM ammunition? And the magazine looks like it's in good condition.

  I think it's 7.62... all I'm sure of is that it's for an AK5

  How old is that stuff? That would be pretty dangerous considering that it gets unstable with age and easier to explode.

  And who in their right mind would leave that laying aroun.... Oh never mind.

  It's old stuff from the 50's that the army uses in their trainings in that facility.

And the most of the things they use around there is just blanks, so there isn't so dangerous ;)

  That's good to hear. :)

  Not so dangerous? You can still loose an eye, or a couple of fingers from a blank.

  Oh yeah, it's 5.55MM ammo. The mag was in perfect shape. My friend took it, along with hundreds of links to build his own ammonution belt.

  What if he leans on something hot, and it blows his nuts off?

  Most military rounds are good for decades if kept in a reasonably dry condition. They are sealed with wax or a polymer to keep moisture out. Some people have found old WWI/WWII rifles with ammo still loaded in them, and it fires like it was made recently.

  What exactly went on in this place?

  it's quite common that the army gets to use buildings on the to-be-demolished-list for some years to train theri uints in urban combat. Things are bound to be lost and left.
and just a late comment for all you who worry, the granade is (spränggranat 56) is made for practesing and absolutley harmless without in this condition since a lot of it's missing....

  I don't know about the Swedish army, but when I served in the FDF, things like these were NOT bound to be lost. Never. If someone lost something, a clip for example, we would search for it until it was found (as we did in the basic training - spent a night looking for a clip and 20 blanks someone dropped during combat training).

  You should have seen the american soldiers that "trained" in Romania 2 or 3 years ago: they would loose 3 or 4 magazines a day, not to mention unshot blanks of wich I have a few. I have to remember one of these days to throw them in a fire somewhere and run hehe - thanks for the reminder. I suggest you do the same and STOP TAKEING THINGS FROM SITES WHILE EXPLORING!

  That would be 5.56x45mm, if I right the AK5 uses NATO ammunition, which is 5.56mm for assult rifles.

  You're right on that one Blackbird.
Posted by g3shooter 6/20/2008 12:14 AM | remove
  It's 5.56mm

That grenade is inert too, see the remainder of the blue paint?

I collect guns and old inert ordinance.

  What sort of grenade is that anyway? It looks like a Russian RGD-5 but the ridge is too high up the side.
