To think this gentleman had no idea this old box of his supplies that he probably hadn't opened in 50 years would bring joy to tens or hundreds of thousands of people over the internet after he was gone. Very cool video.
jason60chev was just gonna say same thing. My uncle is old school and still uses his M1 this year for deer season and he has the original cleaning kit and I just seen it
Gander Mountain Outdoors was a catalog store in Wisconsin founded in 1960. That McCormick's bottle is no older than the 80's. In the 60's-70's they still used the slender glass bottle that many of their premium products still come packaged in today. I'm 60 in a few days.
Hi guys the press you have that has "Rex" on the side, Is actually used for rivets in leather. It uses tubular brass rivets. He probably used it for holster repairs or sling repairs. Thanks for sharing!
My dad was an old school reloader and gunsmith and I have all his stuff from after he passed... I have pretty much everything you guys just showed and use it regularly.. Thanks for the trip down memory lane and making me remember the good old days watching my dad reloading and fixing guns...
This guy probably remembered the days when you could buy dynamite sticks at the hardware store and order full auto Tommy guns from the Sears catalog and have them delivered to your door no questions asked! The way it should be!
@Carl there was no such thing as a terrorist in those days but we had a good many stumps in the lower 40 to loosen up so we could pull them out with the little 8-N Ford. Sometimes a guarter of a stick was enough
@@jimmybare3026 No such things as terrorists? 😁 Who blew up the ammo dump in NYC or fired the shots that started WWI? Plus a 1000 other acts of terror around the world pre and post WWII. You need to take off your 'rose tinted glasses' and read a history of or two. Ps bank robbers, gangsters and the Mafia in the 20s, 30s and 40s used a lot of explosives to murder and steal. Wouldn't you call them terrorists?
@@RicTic66 there have always been bad actors sense the beginning of time but you can't compare the degree of Terror with these days with those. There's really no comparison and if you think so you need to take your rose colored glasses off. And I stand by my statement unless you can prove me wrong. The word terrorist did not exist. It was not in the Webster dictionary
I wish Barry could have been here to go through this treasure chest with us! 😢 He would have been fascinated, and the video would have been twice as long with his detailed explanation of each item! 😀
@Ios5513 How is there no point? All they need is gunpowder and they can make ammo from all the components they got for free. Even if its not on video I would load them up for some range ammo.
yeah I didn't want to be that guy, but most this stuff is from the 70's and maybe as late as the 80's. It's still cool as heck! The particular decade doesn't take much away from that. but agreed it's not 1950s stuff.
The little oil can that came in the Box you could have bought it any surplus store in the 60s a little piece you taught was a scraper was also a tool but also could be attached to a cleaning rod the rest you guys kind of figured it out
This stuff is so cool. As a young man I found my great grandfather's guns and it was so interesting to me. One of the great reasons for guns is the history of them which so many overlook in the pro gun argument. These are priceless things. I thought you were joking yes the scraper functions as a rod end , the T handle for your cleaning rod... obviously the case contents spanned a number of years in his shooting life.
Great video. When I got into reloading a year and a half ago my neighbor's step-dad died who was a reloader. They wanted $20 for a massive amount of brass/bullets, Dillon press with parts and a lot of other random reloading stuff. I have no interest in pistol reloading so I managed to sell the stuff in a week and made my neighbor's mom about $400 instead of $20.
My Uncle Jesse Hairr took afterwards aerial photos of Hiroshima and Nagasaki from a bomber. He left me an M98 mauser. My other cousin got an 1100 so I feel lucky. Such a cool rifle you inherited.Does it have any provenance or astory?
Thank you for posting this. Something about seeing the old reloading stuff and the older styled tools reminded me of my grandpa, and it has brightened my day. Great video guys!
Please pray for my friend, he took a shot of whiskey every time you said "old school" Thanks for sharing that time capsule. It reminds me of a few estate sales I've struck gold on over the years!
My great grand father ran a reloading and sporting goods store in the garage in the 60s and 70s. When we cleaned out the garage there was boxes and boxes of old molds dies and everything else you could think of
That “scraper” tool you guys were wondering about is a Garand multi tool. The tool is used to remove the gas piston nut, adjust the rear sight, and remove the extractor from the bolt. Also acts as the handle to the rod set.
I'm a longtime subscriber but my first comment: When my son turned 8 years old I bought him a membership to our local indoor range and gave him a Ruger Single Six to teach him the basics of gun safety and introduce him to the sport of shooting. He is now an officer in the U.S. Air Force and we still share the joy of shooting together also share and enjoy your videos please keep them coming.

That was a really neat video. I have a hard time watching a complete video of anything. I was glued to this video. A can only imagine people going through my stuff one day.
my dad was killed in a plane crash when i was 1 yo he was a dangerous game hunter in africa i use his reloading equipment to this day this brings back alot of memories i have alot of this stuff its so special to me since i have no memories of him love your channel !
My father in law passed away a couple of years ago but b4 he did he invited us down to Fl for a visit. He asked me if I'd like to go out in the garage for a minute, of course I would, he proceeded to pull a wooden box just like yours from under the bench and asked if i'd like it in addition to all his other reloading equipment... I was just like you going through those old boxes, hidden gems everywhere :-) I've enjoyed reloading ever since and watched several of your reloading vids to help guide me through my first reloads ;-) Thanks gentlemen!!! And Happy New Year to ALL!!!
New drinking game: Gotta drink a shot every time they say "old school". (Averaged once every 43 seconds.) Couldn't even count the "cool's". Then it again, it was cool ... way cool. Old school even. Thanks for a great video.
Watching ya'll unbox all that cool stuff brought back memories to me when my uncle passed many years ago. I did the exact same thing out of a wooden box myself. Thanks guys for sharing. It's always nice to remember the past.
I think it was the gentleman's "junque" box where he put stuff he didn't use or need anymore "just in case". The unused kits were probably Christmas gifts from years past. or bought on sale.
@@SSN515 Yeap, also the plastic spice bottle is late 70s - 80s. And the lube pad is a plastic one. My 1977 Lyman reloading kit came with a metal cased lube pad.
That was interesting great load of old school equipment I still have some old boxes,Norma.357 mag. Norma .44 mag factory cases, and an old UZI 9mm factory cardboard box. Still got them from the 80s.
That's was pretty cool setup. My dad (Carl Huber) was a Gunsmithing as long as I can remember till his untimely death in 2003. He was 55. A lot of that stuff bring back memories because he had and we used some of the old school stuff. Thanks for the memories.

I was given some LEE stuff from a lady I knew from church. Since I prefer the LEE auto prime one of the things was a full set of shell holders in the clear red plastic case. I knew her hubbie as well. Great video Eric and Chad. Happy New Year. Oh, I hear that GA has joined VA. GRRRRRRRRRRR!!! I hope 2020 will see this stuff go away, I hope.

@@shotbytim9624 not always. Depends greatly on the set up being used. Some of the older set up seated gas checks one die and sized in a completely different die. That arbor style press was set up more along the lines of a lubricator die set up. Not a typical pass through sizer.
My grandpa was a woodworker for a very long time and ever since i was a baby i was in the shop with him. When he passed i enheritted his tools. I have some really really old tools he used and the tools i used with him. When i hold them in my hands its like i travel back in time.
What will people be collecting from our current time period 70 years from now. We throw away so much, may not have many time capsules from our time....

Was the arbor press used to put gas checks on the bullets cast from the Lee molds you found?
Most likely
It isn't for reloading. I's actually an antique rivet press for leather/fabric rivets.
Yes that’s what it’s used for. Don’t think you could set any rivets in it.

I am willing to bet that the arbor press was for seating gas checks more than sizing.
I thought sizing and gas check seating were done in the same stroke?
@@shotbytim9624 not always. Depends greatly on the set up being used. Some of the older set up seated gas checks one die and sized in a completely different die. That arbor style press was set up more along the lines of a lubricator die set up. Not a typical pass through sizer.
My grandpa was a woodworker for a very long time and ever since i was a baby i was in the shop with him. When he passed i enheritted his tools. I have some really really old tools he used and the tools i used with him. When i hold them in my hands its like i travel back in time.
I have many of the same things they are not 50s , they are seventies
Gents, fantastic video. This is one of the best ones! This gentleman's legacy continues by you showing his tools.🇺🇸
"How cool is that?"
Very cool indeed! I too love old tools and old products. History is fun. Thanks for sharing guys.
What will people be collecting from our current time period 70 years from now. We throw away so much, may not have many time capsules from our time....
If things continue the way they are going illegal firearms or shitty o/u shotguns
I just hope we still have a 2nd Amendment in the future... 😞
True, but our dumps will have stuff that will never biodegrade. And that's where all the Glocks will be.
@@bobgarr6246 HAHAHA! 🤣🤣 I love Glocks, but that was hilarious!
Yeah old tools are awesome. Had some tools from my grand dad when he was a mechanic back in the 20's, 30's, and 40's.
This looks like some form of scribe, possibly for scribing.
Thank you very much guys! Those Lee boxes, the Remington primer box and even the Sierra bullet box all look perfectly normal to me.Every once in a while it feels good to be old. Great vid!

At 4:40 is the HANDLE for a M14 cleaning rod. I used that a lot in the 60's.
