Affordable ammo cans

[+slukster]

Someone had posted this topic 30 Cal ammo cans - Ebay listing over in the Geo Topics forum and people were scared of by the high shipping cost. If you buy multiple cans though you can save a lot on shipping. I ordered 6 cans to northern NJ and the shipping was $23.76. I offered $2.25 per can so the total was $37.26 or about $6.21 per can. Not bad. I didn't post this on the original thread because I didn't want them all to be snapped up and the deal be gone for when I need more. I only wanted to give a heads up to my local N/E crew. Can anyone point me to a local Army Navy store that has them for about the same price?

 

I am also posting this in hopes of promoting more ammo can hides in my area rather than micro hides.

If you go to Englishtown auctions near Marlboro, NJ there is an army surplus vendor that sells them for 5$ each. Alternatively, you can pick them up from the store/warehouse in Princeton, NJ. Contact me directly and I can provide the information regarding this source.

... or come to one of the Central Jersey events. There a mysterious cacher that always show's up and is seen selling them out of the back of his car for about $5 a pop.

 

Englishtown flea marking is a pretty good bet. Plus, you'll find all types of other groovy things there!

Thanks for the info. I only get down to Englishtown once a year so I can stock up then. I have had good luck buying them through Ebay and they are delivered to my door.

Gun Shows are a very good place to find Ammo cans, they do have more than just guns and ammo at them
