Ammo Cans

Anyone know who sells them in metro area? Looking for the smaller ones, 30cal and 50 cal 100 linked boxes to match what i already have going!

Thanks

The Army Surplus store at Hampden Ave and Broadway in Englewood sells them.

I have 3 of the smaller ones and 2 more that are one size bigger. I'd sell them to you for $25.

Thanks Micah, i was just there today & should have included that I bought all the ones in the size I am looking for last week from them. They do have the SAW boxes one size bigger for $16.

I went the Flea-bay route, 8 almost new cans for $62 shipped is actually cheaper than the trashed cans at the surplus store.

I needed a place to store the 7000 rounds of PRVI M193 I bought from the AIM deal currently going on.

Wow... I'm surprised they still have any PRVI left!

I was too....I guess they still have plenty as well!

this one is purely an investment idea.

I'm sure it will be... I've heard it's good stuff.

I'd order some too, but I'm out of room (space wise and credit card wise)!

you can always make more room storage wise, the CC is a toughy tho. I actually conned the wife into letting me do this. My stash is strong, but at $330.01/ case shipped right now its a good deal and when Obillary gets into office the stuff is gonna be worth a fortune!

How are you getting around the $22 shipping charge to get a case for $330 shipped?

Nice to know. I was at the one on Broadway today and out of the dozen or so to select from I was only able to piece together one that was not all rusted out, bent up or had holes drilled in the bottom of it.

Gander Mountain in Aurora has ammo cans...I saw a couple at Bower's, but I dont know if he was selling them or just had them there, as he had a lot of stuff there from SHOT...

I stopped at the Surplus on Pecos the other day for some camping stuff-their ammo cans leave something to be desired plus I thought the prices were high for the quality. Lady at the counter also told me that they're limited to selling 2 boxes of ammo per customer-that's the first time I heard that one.

First time i went in, i grabbed 2 in very good condition, $5 bucks each. The last time i went the quality wasn't as high. She never mentioned the limit when i was there, guess they're going through a lot of them.
