Pair of U.S. Military M2A1 Ammo Cans – 5.56mm Marked, Steel Storage Boxes

Offered here is a pair of authentic U.S. military surplus M2A1 steel ammunition cans, originally issued for storing and transporting 5.56mm M855A1 linked ball cartridges.

Each can displays genuine military stenciling, unit markings, and field wear, adding to their historic and collectible appeal. Ideal for secure gear storage, ammo transport, or display in a military collection. A durable, functional duo with authentic service history—add these to your kit today!


Condition
