military ammo cans???

[okinawanfighter]

Where can i get military ammo cans somewhere near reading, pa. Could buy them on-line but shipping kills you. I'm figuring there has to be somewhere local where i can get them.

Here in Pittsburgh, the local Army/Navy store has them. Do a Google search and see what shows up in your area. For the record, the Army/Navy store had them for about four times the price that I paid for them at a gun show. The gun show had skads of them and I gave him $20 for five medium cans.

That's a good deal.

Also on the surplus stores. I've seen prices anywhere from 5-9 a piece for the medium cans in good shape. (Check the seals!!)

I've only got 2. I need another yet.

Targetmaster has them down 202 right above the DE state line.

On their site it says...

"Military Surplus Ammo Cans

-Demand is going crazy & prices are rising!!

Targetmaster has plenty to choice from!!

50 cal. - $15 ea.

30 cal. - $10 ea.

SAW Can - $19.99 ea.

40mm Rocket Can - $19.99 ea."

They're half of what Targetmaster wants at the Valley Forge Gun Show (mid-December). Granted, it's $9 to get in but you usually go for other trinkets anyways so the $ saved on shipping might make up for it.

At the Harrisburg show recently, we were buying the 50 cal cans (med. size) for $7.00.

Surplus store in Zerns usually has them. I think it was $5 for the smaller ones and $8 for the larger (I forget)

I remember a fellow at the HBG show in the spring had the 50's at 6 bucks a pop or 4 for 20.

When I looked them over....I realized they were darn near brand new. As in used once and still had styrofoam liners.

I bought eight of em.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that we might be seeing more of these coming home from the land of the sand.

Stubby in York had them recently for a good price, ISTR.

Darn it. I wish I would've seen that. I like to keep a different can per caliber and I just picked up 2 different ones so I need two more. The cheapest place here is at romans and I think he wants 12 pr .50
