Considerations & Trade-offs

Used surplus condition means cosmetic wear and prior service use should be expected; this is a functional storage box, not a new-in-package item.
The can is sized to hold 7 boxes of 2 3/4" 12 gauge shells, so it may be more specialized than a general-purpose ammo can for mixed gear storage.
The rubber O-ring is intended to help protect contents from dust and moisture, but it does not make the container fully sealed against all conditions.
Steel construction adds durability, but it also means the box is a heavier, more rigid carry option than soft storage alternatives.
