    Wheres all the ammo cans?

    Looking to get a couple 50 cal ammo cans. Where are they.
    Only can find commercial plastic boxes.

    Have several thousand rounds to store.

        This is what gun shows are good for. Shipping on ammo cans will cost you a pretty penny.

                I watched a guy buy 120 .50cal cans at the last show I attended. Seemed like it took about a half hour to schlep them all out on a dolly. Kinda made me jealous.

                  Last Del Mar Gun Show (two weeks ago) I picked up a few and was surprised how expensive they were (3 for $33).

                  Check Craigslist. I see them come up occasionally. Tomorrow I'm going to pick up a bunch from this guy on Craigslist.



                  He is selling them for $5 each, any size. Works well for us Southern California folks. Good luck.

                    Have you checked out the Army/Navy store @ College Oak and Auburn? Last I checked they didn't have any .50 cal cans, but they did have night vision cans that are about twice the height and only were $15 bucks each. They are lined with foam, but you can pull that out. I bet you can store 2k rounds in these bad boys! Get two and split the load.

                      ill have to try locally i guess cause shipping is a pain. i remember i bought them for 2 dollars 2 years ago with no additional shipping cause that's where they put my ammo in to ship.

                      things have changed boys..

                            Thought I saw a bunch at River City Gun Exchange today.
