New Military Surplus Steel Ammo Can Double Pack with 50 Caliber Ammo Can (M2A1) and 30 Caliber Ammo Can (M19A1) Made in USA by Milspec Military Manufacturer

Who knows? Maybe the metal will shield my GoPro from that EMP or killer solar flare so I can film the zombie apocalypse with my last bit of stored battery juice! In case you are bleary eyed from online shopping and are having trouble picturing the dimensions, the large one is about the size of a car battery, or three reams of standard letter sized paper turned on their side. The smaller one comes shipped inside the larger one. These seem quite sturdy and mine came with no significant dings or scratches. I didn't want them to look too perfect. Yep, I know there are places to get used ones very cheap, and the mil markings look cool on those, but if you actually want to use them as a watertight, bounce around, stack-on-top of storage box, I think these are a good choice. Shipping was insanely fast. Zombie kit being compiled as we speak.

Cans are new and are come in the typical olive green color as pictured. They seal tight, which I love. When they lock down, there is no question that the cans are sealed. They feel durable, Just a though for those who will add the lock unit sold by another manufacturer on Amazon, this is not a knock against either manufacturer, On the 50-cal can, I had to use a dremel to open the hole on the latching flap a bit more as the tolerance was too tight for the bolt to fit through. I would prefer to not have to put a lock on the cans, but kids can get get curious and I'm locking up the ammo to add a measure of safety.

What I received, was not what was pictured in Amazon ad. Mine were not as pretty, finely built, did not have any markings on them, and had slots in the latches where I would normally write on them to identify the contents. And I believe that although the price was high, it is worth because of the free shipping. They are very sturdy and the seals make for a very tight fit. I am pleased overall with the purchase. Would buy again if I do not run across them elsewhere.

Complete crap. Lids do NOT latch shut properly. I have several other REAL ammo cans and these are cheaply made. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!

These ammo cans work, but won't win any awards for looks. They are beaten up and the paint isn't even.

The cans arrived with no issues. The only thing worth mentioning is that the cans smell from the paint. The paint was done evenly. No drips along the side or blemishes. It's definitely stronger than the plastic ones I have. Not that I'm going to be lugging bullets all over the place. The small can takes boxes of 40 caliber perfectly. The bigger will handle 9mm. Maybe I'll try mixing them up in the big can to see what pattern of boxes maximizes the amount of boxes I can fit in. I thought I had more boxes of 9mm rounds so I have to buy some more to try it out. Expensive for ammo cans but worth it when comparing sturdiness to the plastic boxes.

The ammo cans will work but won't win any awards for looks. They are beaten up and the paint isn't even and lots of place where they missed paint and deep scratches. I would have sent them back but needed them for this weekend so are stuck with them. From the WeaponWise ( While the ammo cans are new and unused, the manufacturing process used to make them does allow for some uneven painting and scratches. You can see this information in the Amazon Listing. However, this does not affect the quality or usage of the can. I would offer to send you replacement cans but I'm not sure if your experience would be any different. It's hard to tell without seeing the images. I'm not sure why I'm not able to view them.)

Good quality... strong. I had an old surplus 30-cal can from about 15 years ago, and it has held up great. Since these are in new condition, they should last you decades. I plan on getting more at some point, and the fact that these came in a bundle, saved money. They came in good condition, including the internal seals. The packing was good - the 30-cal is inside the larger 50-cal box, with the lid detached inside, and they included a cardboard insert between to keep them from getting scratched. If you have kids, I'd recommend the locks you can get for these. I installed these on both (requires a drill)... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00SNOQR1G
