I bought a bunch of cans from them last month and was very pleased with the condition of the cans. The shipping charge was very reasonable to me. I can never find cans locally anyway.

They either have to be boxed up in sturdy cardboard or they'll get a $5 per item charge from UPS, as bare metal containers cause extra wear-and-tear on their conveyor belts. And remember that they're quite heavy, too, which increases the costs. -Troy |

I didn't pay that much. I ordered five SAW cans and three .50 cans and the shipping was $19.24. It was one big and heavy box that poor UPS guy had to deliver. I think the shipping was quite reasonable. |

Wow. Those appear to be in really good condition. I think every single can I bought either locally or through Widener's (Grade A) had at least a little rust. Yours look new. |

Received 10 today and they look good. I'll be ordering more. I'm surprised I received them at all the way they were packaged. 2 corners were ripped half way and 1 corner liked a couple of inches be completely ripped open.

Just ordered 5. This is the where the cost of shipping changes slope to be a negligible discount per additional can. The very best number to order is definitely 11 cans according to my calcs. If not 11, 5 is also a good cutoff point.

The best thing next to the condition is their selection. A couple months ago, I picked up 4 tall 50 cal cans, which easily hold a case of 1000, so I don't have to split it between 2 regular 50 cal cans. I also picked up 4 fat 50 cal (saw cans), which hold 30 each 30 round magazines standing on end with a couple more laid on top. I was very pleased with the almost pristine condition of all eight cans.

Just ordered myself 11 of these bad boys for $6.33 shipped each. Can never find these things locally and when I do they are like 12-15 bucks!
Will finally be able to sort out all my mags and ammo the way I want to. Good find! |

Just got my cans. They are in the best condition I've seen, like new. Just load em up and store away.
Mine have large white paper labels on both sides saying 50 cal AP instead of the cool yellow paint stencil. Had I been certain they would be this nice, I would have gotten a few more. |

Got mine today (8) and they have the same big white sticker on the side. They are in great shape, but would have preferred the yellow paint myself too. I am guessing they just had the ammo pulled and the cans were sent off for sale. |

The sticker peels off easy. These aren't as nice as the first 10 .50 cal cans I got. They look like they were made by a different manufacturer. I only got 2 this time along with 4 .50 cal -10" tall and 4 S.A.W. Box. These looked better.

Yep, just got my 11 today... same white sticker. No cool yellow stencil, but no big deal.
All of these cans are in great shape. No rust anywhere. Very happy with my purchase. Will have plenty of storage for a while. |

Eh, figured that I'd better hop in before it was too late. Ordered 8 50's, 2 fat 50's, and 2 .30cals. Came out $6.50 each shipped. Not bad at all!
Hopefully they'll look as good as DU's. Thanks for the link bro!-X |

For some reason they felt flimsy to me compared to some other cans I have. Anyone else notice it ???? |
