It seems I remember someone was selling metal surplus magazine storage boxes that were lined with foam. Where can I purchase some? I currently use large plastic containors but am looking for better ideas. How do you store your 20 and 30 round mags so they don't get all beat up. Thanks for any ideas.

I store mine lovingly in my safe, hell they're too valuable to just leave sitting around the house or in a shed somewhere, let alone rubbing against each ther in an ammo can...  Hopefully that's all about to change come September. If it does, I'll go back to stuffing them under my couch, the seats of my truck, in the old lady's bra- etc. etc. etc.  

Ah, I'm probably dreaming as even after the ban expires IMHO, the price won't drop dramatically on AR mags as X PRez Clitton's executive order still bans the release of surplus mags to the the tax payers... *sshole.  But it will still be good enough that'll I buy as safe just to stuff full of standard cap mags which will of course be bought in quantity for a discount.  That'll have to do.

Those paded cans were originally the PVS-14 night vision devices were shipped in.  I bought one myself and it is great for mag storage.  I can't remember who on the AR-15 website sold it to me.

I toss them on a shelf in the closet. They're firearms magazines, not antique crystal.[rolleyes]
