Vultite 57 Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 yours didn't come with one? well if you buy one, I hope it's made right...when I got my ammo can for X39 ammo, the opener it came with didn't seem like it was made for that type of can, it was too small and wasn't fitting well on the rim...i'd go to your local flea market and check milsurp stores Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I got this one at a local place and they told me when i got it that it would not come with one which i was ok with beacuse i thought i had a few from the others i purchaced online.

scoutjoe 276 Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Maybe this sounds retarded... hacksaw and tin snips? I mean it won't be pretty but that's how I opened my first one before I knew there were official openers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mstranglr 9 Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 You can use a hammer and a screwdriver. Just tap the scewrdriver through the top of the can around the edges until you can peel the lid back. The best way though (even better than an opener), is to use a handheld grinder to grind off the top edge of the can - this is clean, only takes a minute, and you can reuse the can and lid.

Twinsen 86 Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 If I had more than one, I'd just send you one. I have to assume there's somebody around here with a drawer full of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
