While you might find someone selling a can from their personal collection, you aren't going to find any commercial source of US military ammo. It's all long gone, due to Klinton banning the sale of small arms and ammo (except via the CMP) in 1997. There are some Brit bandos of SS-109 around, but much of it is the crappy underloaded stuff that won't cycle many guns.
Chuck Rupe at [url=www.angelfire.com/on2/PandaWeb/wupage.html]Wu's Surplus[/url] is easily the best source for bando kits. His stuff is nicer than any I've seen, with pristine clips and starched and ironed bandos. Of course, you have to pack your own ammo... -Troy |

Best bet IMHO is to buy your ammo, cans, bandos, etc seperate and assemble your SHTF collection yourself. Hours of fun for the whole family. If you read the other posts on here, loading stripper clips can even be an educational expeirence for children!!!!!!
In all seriousness (I was actually being serious about the above also), I haven't seen a complete deal like you are looking for in a long time. I really think you would be best served by picking up a case (or two) of Lake City M193 or Winchester Q3131A and loading your battle packs yourself. There is a lot of good information about where to get bandos (Wu's like Troy mentioned), grab the ammo cans locally if you can, load the clips yourself, and if you have trouble packing the ammo cans with the loaded bandos, well, don't despair, there is even info on here about how to pack the cans to get max rounds per can. |

Quoted: Hours of fun for the whole family. If you read the other posts on here, loading stripper clips can even be an educational expeirence for children!!!!!! Yes it can. My daughter has enjoyed quality time with Daddy loading rounds onto stripper clips. What is ever better is her explaining stripper clips and spoons to the other kids in school!! |

Well, I saw AMMOMAN was selling 1000 rounds, built on stripper clips, and sealed in a plastic watertight case. it was almost $300 for the pack, which is expensive for 1000 rounds.
Ammunitionstore was selling 1000 rounds, in an ammo can, which I wish I would've bought. And then there are the sealed battle packs, which are becoming harder to find. Anything along these lines is what I am looking for. Thanks. |

I've got 380 rounds of USGI greentip M855 for trade on the exchange board. Somebody has to have synthetic AK mags they are willing to part with.
