    Its great to see you guys out detecting again. Great plan of attack on the area you're in. Crazy how it stays light out for 24 hrs a day!!#

    • @TrueVikings
      @TrueVikings  4 года назад +2

      Detecting is always the best. You get used to the light, but in the winter it will be dark 24h too. That is a bit worse. Thanks for watching Kevin :)

    Is it really that light at midnight there ? Please explain.

    • @TrueVikings
      @TrueVikings  4 года назад +4

      It really is that light in the summer months. The sun does not set. But in the winter it's other way around and the sun does not rise in a month. 😅

    I think that the 9mm cartidges you found was from a suomi kp31, considering every other rifle cartidge in the area was finnish

    @hardyakka6200 4 года назад +1

    Well done. Good finds did you look at the bottoms of those cartridges to see where they were made the year and the calibre? Goodness me.
    Nice countryside not sure if I would like to fight there though.

    • @TrueVikings
      @TrueVikings  4 года назад +1

      Thanks yakka. Most of the casings were made in 1940-43. Some had the finnish ammo factory VPT stamped on them ( Valtion PatruunaTehdas, State ammo Factory). Some had random letters and numbers to our untrained eyes. Probably german ammo?
