MartyZ 697 Posted September 28, 2018 Any need 50cal metal ammo cans? Harbor Freight has them for $9.99 with coupon until 10/31. They are made in china but they are decent quality. I have 12 and will be getting more. Attached coupon ammo can.pdf 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sota 1,191 Posted September 28, 2018 have you compared them to actual M2A1 cans? are they dimensionally the same, and do they stock properly. also their plastic .30cal cans are $3 with coupon until the end of the month. I have... a bunch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MartyZ 697 Posted September 28, 2018 Haven't compared them with M2A1 can's but I have them stacked 3 high now and they are solid, no wobble and no gaps Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Something about bringing old, dented, rusty, steel boxes into my house just does not appeal to me. I would rather buy new for $10 then used for $20, even if they are not the same dimensions.

Sota 1,191 Posted October 5, 2018 I bought a bunch of cans from Rural King earlier this year; they're not quite the same dimensions as actual M2A1 cans height wise, but they do stack with M2A1's fine at least. Now if I could just get more at the same price as last time ($9/can shipped.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
myhatinthering 462 Posted October 5, 2018 Hf also uses different seal material. I have 3 of them but they are not the same as gi cans Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
