Do not call them to order these. This is a catalog price from a while back, the new price is $17.99 a can... But they are still honoring the online orders at the $8.97 price and the coupon SH199 still works for $4.99 shipping. Member price will not show upon checkout but I was assured that once the order makes it to the main order computer it will pickup buyers club prices and not charge the non-member pricing. Came to an even ~$50 for 5 cans, cannot beat $10 a can shipped. Hope the new batch looks good...

Where can you buy them locally for $16 ?

Where can you buy yhem locally for $16

I have purchased all sorts of ammo cans from SPG: 30cal, 50cal, 40mm, 20mm, 25mm poly, etc.

The quality has run the gamut from almost new to "really...you actually shipped that to a customer?". In the few cases where the can was in very poor condition, SPG either refunded the cost, or shipped another can at their expense.

The 'typical' can that I get usually has some rust, scratches and perhaps a slight ding (for 30s and 50s). The 40mm cans are usually in somewhat rougher shape with heavier rust, some pitted a bit and more scratches/dings. Nearly every 40 I've ordered has required a good deal of elbow grease to clean up as they have all needed repainting.

I ordered a few. Its a great deal and I use these for all kinds of crap......Just wanted to say thanks for posting.

I have gotten these surplus ammo cans in the past and have been very satisfied with the condition. I got a .30 and .50 with my latest order that arrived today and while the .30 looked good the .50 was filthy. There was grease and mud caked on the outside and the inside was covered in a white sand like substance. I was really shocked that they would send something in this condition. I had to spend quite a bit of time cleaning the can to get the bulk of the gunk off and it is still a mess. I ended up just covering the outside surfaces with shipping tape. I contacted Sportsmans and am waiting to hear back from them. I hope that this is not the type of can they are going to be consistently sending out now.

I got my cans yesterday! 6 of them. all 6 cans were in GREAT SHAPE! all did have a odor inside that I hit with some CLP to protect the metal as well as 86 the odor.

All cans seamed to have only been used once with very little to no scratches/markes inside them. insides looked NEW!

out side of 5 cans looked great with just a slight dirt film from storage NO RUST AT ALL
1 can while inside looked new the outside paint was marked all over, Im gonna store my gun cleaning chems inside it as its easily noticeable to me what can it is.

I did order more cans so I will post if cans are in any different shape then what I discribed

the freebee 8x21 barska binoculars are very small but work very well!!
Im very surprised in the quality that the clarity shows!

I might buy a pair of barska biggens to see long range idk

I made 4 separate transactions for a total of 12 cans.

1st order as a non member I loaded 3 cans to my cart and went to checkout,
being prompted to become a member, I declined and was then given a last ditch effort to get me to join with a bribe of free shipping,double member discunt on the order, and a free pair of BARSKA 8x21 binoculars !

Like a hungry fish i took the bait!

At checkout I then used the member only coupon SN968 for $20 off! giving me a total of $33.90 shipped! order complete!

I then instantly went and loaded 3 more cans in my cart and went to checkout again, I used the member coupon SN968 again and my total was $15.90 shipped ! order complete!

"round 3" 3 cans, checkout, yada yada but this time the coupon was not valid due to as it reads you can only use the coupon 1 time , even though I had already used it twice! so I used the other code SN833! $15.90 shipped order complete!

"round 4 " 3 cans , checkout,yada yada. this time I tried both coupons again and both would not work . so I was happy that I got 9 cans orderd!
All this was saturday night

today being sunday I logged in just to try 1 more time as I wanted 12 cans. I dont know if its a daily thing or a glitch or what but tonight the coupon worked again!!

so all totaled out "keeping the membership and binoculars out of the equation"
x12 .50 cal cans shipped to my door for $81.60 "thats $6.80 a can each" A free 1 year membership, and a free pair of BARSKA 8x21 binoculars !

I will post back on the condition of the cans and the BARSKA 8x21 when I get them !

Bought 10 and used $20 coupon. They all were in excellent condition. Another great purchase from SG.

Bought 7 and used the $20 off coupon... came to $53 shipped, decent deal. Some light scratches and a few minor rust spots. But the seals and insides are good. Mine had "PROX" stickers on them. A little cleanup with some WD40, they look great!

If you're already a SG club member, it's one heckuva deal if you get three and take off $20. At $6 each, to my front door is awesome. Reading the reviews, the quality is variable but my three are in very good condition. You can tell they got utilized, but only very lightly. Light scuffs. No rust. A little bit of grit inside. Excellent seal. One is marked 5.56mm, the other two are .50 cal. Same dimensions at a glance. (LC-10B387-411 and LC-10L647L136)

Good deal, Don't forget to uncheck the "Add Package Protection for only 99", as its not needed for such a small order and saves you a dollar.
