Ammo cans back on sale

Recommended Posts

I know all of you use slickguns AKA gun.deals and if you're not you should. So you probably already know that the ammo cans are back on sale like they are every year around this time. I'm going to stock up on a few because one of my 5 gallon buckets decided to bust open and leave about 4 thousand rounds all over the floor.

The academy ones are not surplus and don't stack as well as the real ones, BUT they are brand new, seal perfectly, don't smell like shit and have perfect paint. 

Yup I have one here.  Doesn't stack well but it does the job.  I got a better deal from Costco when they were on sale for the 2 pack .50/.30 cal for like $15.

I got mine today. I ordered six and they packed it into a box that could easily hold 12 with no packing material. The damn things must have been bouncing all around inside that box. Two of them have scratches on them, only one of the black ones has a really noticeable one. I just can't believe they didn't use any packing bubbles or paper or anything. Only 4 were packed in bags.  Last year they were packaged much better.

I'm getting extremely frustrated. I've tried their online chat 3 times so far, all 15-20 minute waits. Once I get down to 1 or 2 remaining in the queue I get error saying no rep available and I get booted out. I'm in the process of trying one more time. If not I'll call monday and cause a raucous, not only for my cans being packaged improperly but for the poor customer service on their end with the chat keep booting me out after waiting last hour to talk to someone to ask the procedure to have the damaged ones replaced.

saw someone bought a pallet of 'em.  wonder where I could get one of those! :D

Try Coleman’s surplus in PA. They had pallets of them before. Get the 40mm cans, they are way better for storage!. I can fit a TON in one of those.

Was at Harbor Freight on Friday - the 50 cal cans were $15.  Seemed pretty solid - didn't pick any up.

You need the coupon code for$9.99, it's on their site, good till 11/30. Limit 4 per day, I picked up 12 over the last week.

I just received 5 50 cal and 5 30 cal from midway,    they were the grade 3 which is the lowest quality.  just wanted to see what they looked like,   they appeared to have been used once and are in perfect shape.   4.99 for 30 cal and 6.99 for 50 cal.

    • Just a heads-up for anyone who might also be in this situation. I joined USLS mid-April of 2022. Some time after renewing for 2023, I changed email providers, and dutifully reflected my new address on my account page. So, I have been anticipating renewal alerts at my new address, but those never arrived. I logged in to my account the other day, and was surprised to see that my subscription expired that same day. I went to my account main information page, confimed that my email address was correct, then went to the billing page, which showed my previous two payments, but which did not give me any apparent way to pay up for the new year. I requested support using the Customer Service form on the web site, but received no reply. Today I called their support number. Apparently changing the email address from my view of my account page did nothing to change the address that they use internally for billing purposes, including expiration notifications. Maybe they also use that address for replies to the support form, even if a different email address is entered there. Also, my account was set up to auto-renew and charge my credit card without my intervention, but that setting did not show on my account page in any obvious way. So, if you have USLS and have changed your email address since you last renewed, you might want to give them a call to ensure that they send renewal information to your correct address. The prospect of having legal coverage lapse while carrying in NJ was, for me, a less that confidence inspiring experience. I will note that the telephone-based customer service was excellent.
    • F*n imbeciles. They know damned well (or should) that, even if passed by the Colorado Senate and signed into law, virtually that entire load of crap is certain to fail Bruen/Heller scrutiny, and probably sooner, rather than later (SCOTUS). What a monumental waste of time (of course, how much can a dip$h*t's time be worth, anyway?) and energy. I passed through Colorado a few times in the 70s, and visited some clients there in the 80's & 90's, and, even by the end of that period, I had the impression that it was politically fairly conservative (with a few exceptions such as Aspen). WTF happened?
