      Well Josh, I don't know. What do you think "archaeologists" have been doing for the past hundred years in the desserts of Arabia, the mountains of Africa and South-America? I don't think they took the 4x4 with the metal-detectors. And what these guys are doing is stupid and disrespectful to history. First, those Hafthohlladüngen looked pretty intact and although they look rusty on the outside, if the fuses are still intact and the inside charge isn't eaten, I wouldn't handle em like that. Second, why not dig a little bit further and take those crates out gently. They would have been intact. A little patience goes far. Every collector knows that. This is just plundering.

      $5 for the original brass&bullet, a few cents for the powder and primer, and you have yourself a cartridge indistinguishable from what Hans would have used on the eastern front.
      It's even better than using originals as the primers will have degraded by now to such an extend that it takes a second or two to ignite the powder. It's extremely irritating if you know what I'm talking about.
      Plus with 100% OG rounds you never know how it was stored which greatly impacts the pressure. There's nothing quite like the joys of having your vintage gun explode an inch from your face due to massive overpressure.

      @@bobhenry6159 what are you talking about? I don't mean this in a bad way I really did not get what "apples and oranges"-comparisons have to do with 8mm Mauser.
      Btw, I've looked online for a few seconds and found 2 sites that sell OG ww2 Mauser ammo at $1-1,20 per round.
      Can't post links as yt auto deletes them but first one is "J&G sales" and second one is called "mg34" - both are live rounds, both located in continental US and both ship with FedEx.

    Wet ammo is unstable.

    Only hope the don’t edit out the UXO explosion, these people are crazy any explosives and detonators only get more sensitive with age and are totally unpredictable.

    I hope he doesn't throw all that ammo in the river like he said. All it needs is to be cleaned and I bet 99 out of hundred maybe all of them will still go off. I have shot hundreds of rounds in just as bad condition and they all worked. They put a waterproof lacquer around the primer pocket and the bullet at the factory when they were made.
