Give loose gear a solid home. This genuine USGI M2A2 .50-cal-size ammo can puts a compact steel storage box to work in your garage, vehicle or campsite. The olive-drab finish, folding carry handle and original military markings give it the practical character of real surplus.

Use it to organize tools, repair supplies, camping accessories and other small equipment. The hinged lid opens wide for easy access, while the metal latch closes over a rubber lid gasket. Sold as one empty can with its lid; contents shown for demonstration are not included.

Features

  • M2A2 model: stamped identification is visible in the gallery.
  • Steel construction: a sturdy, reusable container for everyday gear organization.
  • Folding top handle: lifts for carrying and folds down for storage.
  • Hinged lid and lever latch: simple access to the interior.
  • Rubber lid gasket: helps limit dust and moisture entry when the seal and closure are in good condition.
  • Original surplus appearance: olive-drab paint and military markings; markings and cosmetic wear can vary between cans.

Condition and what is included

Choose your condition grade

  • Grade 1 - Used: the cleaner cosmetic option, with light to moderate scuffs, scratches and handling marks.
  • Grade 2 - Used: the budget option, with heavier cosmetic wear. Expect more scratches, paint loss, dents, markings, tape residue and/or surface rust.

Both grades are used surplus. Grading describes cosmetic condition and does not provide a waterproof or submersion rating. The current gallery shows a lighter-wear example; Grade 2 cans may look more worn than the photos. Exact markings and wear vary.

Used military surplus. The photographed example has exterior scuffs, small paint marks and a clean-looking interior. Expect cosmetic signs of prior handling and service. Review the close-up photos of the latch, hinge, lid gasket and interior to see the example's condition.

Includes one empty M2A2 can and lid. Ammunition, magazines and other demonstration items are not included. Stenciled quantities and ammunition designations describe the can's former contents, not this offer.

Common questions

Why does a .50-cal-size can have 5.56 mm markings?
The size name describes the container format. Military cans in this size can have markings for different original contents. This listing is for the empty container.

Is it waterproof?
The gasket is intended to help protect contents from moisture, but this used can is not offered with a submersion or waterproof guarantee.

Will every can have the same stencil?
Markings, lot numbers and cosmetic wear may vary. The photos show a representative example.

Will my organizer or insert fit?
Check the actual usable interior dimensions against your insert before ordering for a precise fit.
