Not sure if anyone would really need something like this... but it is interesting. https://soldiersystems.net/2025/04/30/mdm-25-collapsible-lightweight-ammunition-container/  Separate water tight liner... https://clacamerica.com/products/watertight-clac-liner?_pos=1&_fid=fb80400de&_ss=c |

| $40 for the can & another $11 to buy a separate liner to make it water tight? I'll pass. Not to mention the liners would take about as much space as a regular ammo can & I'm dubious about its water tightness. I guess I must just be old, cause I love the old ammo cans. |

The only people this helps are the people who sell ammo empty cans. |

Interesting, it would significantly reduce empty volume for bulk transport, but that waterproofing better be damn near 100% I wonder if a conventional (but stackable, like plastic cups) option would be viable, would provide a lot of the same benefits while still just needing the one gasket. |
