A Collection of Nine US Military Steel Ammunition Storage Cans

This collection comprises nine US military-issue steel ammunition cans constructed with side-latch closures, top-mounted folding handles, and rubber gaskets designed for moisture-resistant storage. The group consists of eight M19A1-style cans, typically utilized for .30 caliber or 7.62mm linked ammunition, and one taller M2A1-style can, typically used for .50 caliber or 5.56mm ammunition. Each unit is finished in olive drab paint, exhibiting various shades and degrees of wear. The cans feature welded steel construction with embossed reinforcements on the sides. On the exterior of one can in the bottom row, an embossed letter M is visible, though no complete manufacturer name is legible. Several lids feature small yellow rectangular adhesive labels with handwritten black ink notations reading 1, 2, and 3. The interior of the open unit shows the original green coating and a rectangular recessed floor reinforcement. Pickup is Monday, Nov. 9, from 11 am to 7 pm at our facility in Lancaster, OH.
