Exploring With Steve you cheeky son of a gun u wot m8 XD wtf y u put it in the title if we didn't even see or hear you find it and be like OHHHH or show it it wasent even mentioned in the vid y tho click bait I know it's how u get more sub money you need the money but don't trick use so bad like that 😡😡 u wot m8
Exploring With Steve Crates said AKM so I'd say either AK munition or AK minis, I'd say they were guns because they would make them with the caliber of the ammo
so then you were actually walking around with security or official guides? unless they were empty i dont think they would have just left it all out there abandoned like that. lol. prolly a mix of AKM's and AK's. still really cool. interesting to think about the secrets that have been created at that location. not to mention there are current production polish, romanian, czech, etc. 47's that are produced today commercially. i wonder if these will be demilled and destroyed, or modified and sold/shipped on the market?
"oh look guys its ammo crates (let me just edit in "and guns"" so I can make a bs click bait video) "thats so rad!!!! xD. Let me tell you all now that there is not one gun in this video he did not find shit. It says alot about a person when they feel they have to use clickbait it shows they have no faith in there own content.
This factory was operating untill around 2012 - 2014, so all the drama about "soviet Russia ak-47" is over the top. Also, rifles made in Radom were, and are, for domestic use mostly, they never shipped them to Russia, as Russia has a lot of their own gun factories. while there are some remnants of communist era, this stuff here is not as old as you think it is.
And also the reason why there's grass on top of the roof was to keep the building hidden from aircraft spies whether by planes or satellite from countries such as U.S.
What did he told you then? The info i am telling is right on official page of FB Radom, company whose building you visited. They moved to new location, but they still own this one, using it for storage as you shown.
My claims of how this was an old gun factory when Poland was under communism ( Soviet Russia ) and used as a gun factory to make guns for them is accurate. Soviet Russia ruled over Poland and during that time this gun factory made weapons for Soviet Russia. Im also not denying your claims that NOW it's used as storage because of the new gun factory next door but that is NOW and my claims about the past is very accurate.
You should try to find some clean ammo in those crates so you can trade when you get back in the Metro. You will need the gas mask when you leave that building...now you need to find filters and a medkit. Be safe comrade watch for the dark ones.
My dad was Polish and he told me his mum used to work at a place in a factory... Sewing uniforms, and building guns... The money was so low and the hours worked were very long... Most women were forced in to working and had no voice or opinion... The struggle was very hard as the women had families to look after also... I wonder if this is the place my dad talked about or if there is other buildings too... Great Vid Steve hit home for me thinking about me nan or Bapcha as I knew her as x
As a Soviet history buff, I adore this video. Thanks. I have a hard time believing that weapons and ammunition would be left behind, so maybe there is more to the story. The keys looked fairly new. I'd wonder the dates on that calendar. It would be interesting if anyone knows the years of that John Travolta movie poster. It does not seem abandoned to me. Just cleared out. That CZ 100 is a common issue Soviet/former republics police pistol. The table with the old (that's pre-60s) gas mask looks staged by somebody. With the paperwork it seems too random, incongruous with the rest of the tour. Great information though guys.
You clearly had permission to look there. It's a trip to think that the weapons made there killed a lot of people and still are today in russia. The music is fitting to thought of it all. Good job Steve, really love this video, brought tears to my eyes..I would love to hear a story of someone who did worked there and maybe someone who was a high rank too. Is that something you could follow up and get a interview ? O
It is not a Soviet factory, in its beginnings maybe, but there is evidence that worked until today, minute 3:18 there is an almanac of the year 2008. 9:38 The CZ 100 is a semi-automatic pistol, introduced in 1995 by Česká Zbrojovka, the Soviet Union dissolved in 1991. Also the poster mentions the Czech Republic, before 1993 the Czech Republic did not exist was called Czechoslovakia
VHSKisten soo, how in the fuck would we know any different? Because he said so? He can break and enter but can bust open a crate? Yeah thats called bullshit
You gents do know how big the AK market is in the US right? Grab some mags, bolt carriers, stock sets, barrels, and ship that shit back to the US. You found a gold mime yet you don't realize it.
Ian Kollar You wish. It's illegal to bring any of that into the US. You can thank the commies in the US government. A real AKM would sell for as much as a new truck.
I'm quite aware that it would be illegal and I do wish they could bring some surplus parts back. The AK market is kinda expensivr now-a-days. To add to that, a AKM pre 1986 goes for about $11,000 and that's a good day. Finding anything under $16k is rather impossible.
Ethan Cotto-Ramos...The AKM is a 7.62mm assault rifle designed by Mikhail Kalashnikov. It is a common modernized variant of the AK-47 rifle developed in the 1940s.
No it's not lmao. The main difference between an AKM and AK47 is the receiver. AKMs have a stamped receiver, while the AK47s have a milled receiver. You can always tell by the big lightening cut on the left and right sides of the rifle to determine whether or not its an akm or ak47. They're a bunch of other suttle differences to I wont go into, but AKMs aren't modern at all.
+Bryce Graham it is stealing even if it's abandoned!! That building is pr poetry owned by someone, so taking something from that building is considered theft. If he did steal anything, how would he explain where he got an unregistered automatic or semi-automatic weapon. If he did steal anything, how would he get it back to the states????? I wonder about some people!! U all have no conscience!!!!
Trish Spiekhout Abandoned means no longer owned. If the facility was still owned by somebody then it is of course theft. But abandoned land is usually unowned. and Im not aware of Poland's firearms laws, so forgive me on that regard
Wrong all abandoned places are ALWAYS USUALLY property owned. Try going to a local abandoned place yourself. ;) or even google it. You'll notice how all of them are guarded and patrolled.
I would love to have a few of those crates, even empty they're valuable in the U.S. Poland always made some of the nicest AKM's always beautifully finished, excellent machining!
gunnar stahl they're holes caused by rounds. If that was concrete, then the 7.62x39 round would do just that much damage. It would have some grease painting (darkening because of the concussion and other forces) but as is practice, anyone testing a firearm would re-paint the target surface afterwards.
gunnar stahl you're right especially since the holes are paired going along vertical as if they had something bolted to the wall such as a possible target or what not.
Why you no open creates? You take authentic Polish AKM for collection. Yankee no build weapon like our AK/AKM's. I drop M-16 in mud, need 20 minute to clean. Drop AK in mud, pick up and shoot. That how weapon should work, shoot shoot and shoot. Not clean shoot clean. More clean then shoot, why you do this? Good video, cool building
Duane Ransom meh I owned a waser 10 and that shit jammed all the time. Although it is a Romanian gun not polish but it's the same design... ship me a rosewood akm!
+Sean Brooking Dude you obviously dont know SHIT about guns.Especially a shitty Wasr 10. EVERYONE knows the WASR is shit. its not even considered a true AK. Its like buying shoes at Kmart and Nordstroms. sure they are both shoes but how long will the Kmart shoes last? keep buying Kmart but dont expect Neiman Marcus quality as you would get from a Izhmash AK47 or 74. You get what you pay for. I have 12 pre ban pre 89 AK47s and 74s. You can even compare a fuckn Dish Washer 10 to a true PRE BAN AK. Best thing to do with that Tosser 10 is run it over and throw it in the trash
Also just so you know tard. I live in MA and we don't get good ak's or any ak's at all now except Romanian and Chinese . All pre ban (if you can find them) are inflated to astronomical amounts of money. So again with lots of love go fuck yourself ...
Colin Brown oh now your a law enforcement expert too lol. As a matter of fact we are not allowed high end firearms unless it pertains to our duty. I can not buy specialty high end weapons for fun. Second I am a line officer not on any special unit. So please stop acting like a know it all mr over the hill. Lol keyboard warriors crack me up. Throat punch me! That made me laugh for a bit! when I worked inside at the county jail, I used to watch guys like you get checked into protective custody. lol anyways have a nice day tough guy. Oh and ps I give respect where it's do , you gotta earning, it's not given ..
This place is clearly not abandoned. Judging from reading the comments about you not being "allowed" to show inside the gun crates, those guys, or even the signs on that door to the shooting range, You are clearly somewhere that is still actively used by someone to store weapons, whether it be the Polish government or some sort of arms dealers ...
You're talking about the effect of American culture on a Soviet state, but this factory looks far from being abandoned in it's Soviet time. I'm guessing it was abandoned in the mid/late nineties. The posters look very nineties and that CZ100 (which is a Czech gun btw, wonder what's it doing in a Polish gun factory, unless they were also produced there or something) was introduced in 1995. So you're looking at a snapshot of after Soviet times, not during. Culture wise at least, the way the building was built wouldn't logically have changed much.
spᴉKuǝtʇoפɹoℲ it's a tombstone, you can see the slot in the middle where the prongs from the fluorescent tubes go, also the other lightbulb is visible just to the left
So if you read the notes by the producers, this is not really an abandoned factory. Its being used by the private owners as a storage area, and it's even got electricity. Abandoned means nobody uses it, there are no utilities hooked up, etc. This is just a mostly vacant facility that is still privately owned, with some current usage in certain areas.
This is stupid. If the building was abandoned, I'd highly doubt that crated weapons would still be in the building. looters alone would have taken them. The simple fact you couldn't go into curtain areas tells me the building isn't exactly abandoned. Other wise, I'd be opening those crates.
not all Sten-looking guns are Stens; there was a German gun from WW1 that looked a lot like a Sten with a wood stock. It'd be almost hard not to make an ultra budget SMG and have it not resemble one.
You are correct the Germans copied the sten design ( Volksmaschinenpistole or the MP3008) as it was so simple to make and a fraction of the cost of the Sturmgewehr and the MP40 etc.
It hasn't even been that many years.. But culture is so different; we now have kids w/cameras exploring and documenting where actual adults did actual work once.. As if they are discovering the pyramids . . Incredible.
did you open any of those crates up, especially the one that were wrapped up, i dont know i would be going through everything and looking for a guny, especially since your in a factory that predates WWII and that built and opened up due to WWII. i would be tripping ball and running up and down every floor searching for crap
i would of had my friends throw some type of diversion or would of told them and said hey whats that over their and ya, for me to see and be in a room with history like that and somewhat knowing that their might be old ass guns still in prime condition and wanting to see them, i would fake a seizure or have my friend hit or kick me when they werent looking or just something
would be nice for some of these guys exploring to look into all the stuff they find, serial numbers, books, those blueprints, take pictures of everything and bring them into a museum or some place that can translate and figure out the real information behind everything
I'm pretty sure they made the rifles for Poland as their army fielded AKM rifles though they were called Tantals. The newer ones they field in 5.56x45mm are called Beryls.

When the Soviet Union collapsed they left weapons, planes, ships and submarines laying around to just rot. Not too hard to believe they left blueprints behind. The government who thought that stuff was important no longer existed. Why wouldn't they leave them?
How was that place so nice and clean and not destroyed after being abandoned for at least 20 years... I mean nobody has stolen or broken anything In that amount of time
Jason the Gamer because it's heavily guarded and if you look 3:24 there was a 2008 calendar and some of the things in there we're not even Russian or Polish the blueprints were German and the poster of the pistol was from the Czech Republic
Gun - a weapon incorporating a metal tube from which bullets, shells, or other missiles are propelled by explosive force on a relatively flat trajectory , typically making a characteristic loud, sharp noise. The oxford definition
Exploring With Steve sorry. maybe it's because he said "abandoned gun factory" about 45 times in the first five minutes that it gave the perception that this guy was an explorer and not a tourist.
