Don't know.Even rusty, used cans 150 miles away in Yakima are priced high. Comments?
If you're looking for real surplus, well, they aren't making them anymore and demand is high.
It's just that people will pay $10-$15 bucks for a refurbished 50can.
Sorry, when I say "real surplus" I'm referring to ammo cans from the second world war...Since when are they not making steel ammo cans for the military?
Wait, what. hang on,...what are you saying???Sorry, when I say "real surplus" I'm referring to ammo cans from the second world war...
I think even the Blackhawk cans are refurbished modern milsurp.
Please tell me what "surplus" means to you, because last I remember, "surplus" meant items left over, or an excess of product..... or items no longer used, and put on the open market....
We sold em to Lebanon, Israel, UK, various South American militaried, Mexico, Cartels, African countries, and so on.... i mean really, we can export M16s to other countries, just not to ordinary U.S. citizens.. although... there ARE surplus M16 kits on the market, and the much vaunted, much expensive M16 lowers have been surplused onto the market before 1986... just after 1986.. they're now very valuable/expensive due to being exclusive.Well, you're right. YA GOT ME!
Surplus is just another way of saying mass produced and in excess of.
I didn't know the military was selling M16's tho, that's news to me!
Yeah, as for ammo cans I like the 30's, but the 50 cans fit 800round of blazer 9mm in box really well...I think I'd rather have two trim 25's than a Fat 50.
Wonder if Amazon has 'em ?
Costco for sure. They like to sell you 2 of everything.
true, but they have been replaced with M4s, so where did all the surplus M16s go..... definitely not on the US civilian market except parts kitsYeah, as for ammo cans I like the 30's, but the 50 cans fit 800round of blazer 9mm in box really well...
@CamoDeafie so as far as you and I are concerned there is no milsurp M16... it's all relative.
have you put the canvas webbing into serious usage, say...in 120% Relative Humidity, and soaking wet, or without a chance to dry them out, and in heat? There's a reason the military, and even the outdoor gear industry, have gone to nylons and polyester blends for most of their items.I'm not a fan of webbing, or whatever you call it, made after vietnam, it's just uncomfortable and lacks style.
I'm kind of offended that wearing woodland=mall ninja... last I heard, mall ninjas were all about the black gear or MulticamThe good thing about older web gear is that is has such an association with outdoor recreation that you can wear it openly without looking like some mall ninja POS.
There's a huge industry for reproduction clothing of the eras' styling......because of these guys. There's also a huge industry of camouflage clothes for the big guys, also because of airsoft, and hunting, and fashion. You however wouldn't catch me wearing woodland cammies in town....... Although I do have some camo from when I played paintball.... There's a reason I don't wear camo 24-7, even though my username is relevant (I like camo..)I am curious as to how those fat dudes found that attire tho, must be refab for costume.
