Some have asked for a good source for ammo boxes, which I believe I have found. Cheap as dirt

I've had great experiences with Sportsman Guide. They have all kinds of things.
Check your Army/Navy stores or flea markets.

Ammo boxes are great, but someone mentioned moisture in another thread. I can't imagine ammo getting wet, but if you aboslutely must keep stuff dry, consider a "dry box" from a boating store. My son has one for his jet ski; he can keep his phone, GPS, portable marine radio, wallet and such in it and it will be kept absolutely dry. Probably not cheap.

Another source is Government Liquidation . I've never gotten anything in a bid from them, but they have lots of ammo boxes. Here's a direct link to one: Ammo Box

I imagine you can just wander around and pick 'em up for free. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

They are gov't surplus. Can't imagine real ammo boxes being plastic. As for the other sources, Cabella's was more expensive, at least at the moment (3.97 versus 5.97) and sportsman's did not have the 50 cal. boxes, which are the most handy for small spaces. Great price at the liquidation site, but what the heck can you do with 144 ammo boxes?
