military ammo box/case, where to buy online?

[waloidian]

Any place with good ammo boxes with reasonable shipping charges? Any alternatives to the traditional green metal army ones?

How many do you need? Have you tried Traildust on the Westside of B'ton?

killer with ammo cans is shipping! You can find them online cheap enough, but then you have to get them to you. I dont know if you have a gander mountain, but the one in Terre Haute usually has some .50 cal cans for $9 each. More expensive than gun show prices, but no shipping charges.

$9? All the ones I have bought from there have been $5-6.

I have some old wooden AK ammo boxes listed in the EE..... these are definately different than the green cans!!!

your probably right. Its been a while since Ive looked at them there. I was thinking $5, but then I was also thinking "hmmmmmmm gander mountain, usually 2x the normal price" when I typed it hehe

haha, makes sense. I was just hoping they hadn't raised the price on them since the last time I had picked some up.

the pelicans are always nice, didnt think of them for firearms. im just using these for 500 12g shells so they dont need to be the fanciest.

 

[waloidian]

damn i was just out on the westside. I never heard of that shop, but do they typically have these? Ill need 5-10 of them

MTM make a very nice Plastic ammo Box.
Bigger than a .50 cal box but they have a seal.
About $8-$9 at Midway.

Traildust has a huge amount of ammo cans in stock, picked a couple up last week and they had tons in stock. I don't have their card anymore so I forget the address, but I BELIEVE it's on the corner of 2nd (may be called 45 there) and airport road. Little past the Wal-Mart on the right side. Grey building, big OD truck out front, you'll pass a light and turn in to the gravel lot with a sign that says TrailDust, front of the store's kind of blocked by another business.

eBay Store - California Army Navy Surplus Store: LADIES CLOTHING, EQUIPMENT, TACTICAL BOOTS is a good ebayer. They sell ammo cans in various quantities with fair shipping. Sometimes they even have pallets of cans. If you've never had experience with the older WWII style NEVER BUY ANY, in my opinion they are the biggest pain in the backside ever.

You can get ten(10) 50cal cans for 67.65 shipped.

I have an orange marine dry box that is just a bit larger than the ammo boxes. It has a nice tray in the top as well for misc junk I take to the range. Not sure the name of it (I'm at work) but I think I bought it at Meijer.

Green is cheaper

I just bought a few at the army surplus for 8 bucks. I know that the green is not so good but the price is good!

I've bought a few .30 cal ammo can's from J&G sales. Usually get one or two when I order ammo from them. If its loose ammo in bags, or individual boxes of ammo, they usually ship those boxes/bags in the cans, so you at least don't have to pay to ship an empty container.
