The MTM 50 caliber ammo can in purple is a molded polypropylene take on the classic surplus can, built for bulk or boxed ammo (brand part no. AC50C-25). An O-ring seal in the lid keeps water and dust out, although the maker is clear that the can is not submersible. A heavy-duty dual latching system keeps the lid from popping open in transit, and double padlock tabs let you lock it for storage. Molded-in stacking ridges and a fold-down handle make it easy to carry to the range and stack in a truck or closet. It is made in the USA.
