## Overview

The MTM AC50C Ammo Can is a rugged, lightweight storage solution designed for 50 caliber ammo and more. Crafted from durable polypropylene with a water-resistant O-ring seal and dual latching system, it offers secure, weatherproof protection. Its compact dimensions and stacking ridges make it ideal for organized storage in garages, basements, or on the go. Made in the USA, this versatile box doubles as a toolbox or collector’s case, combining military-grade toughness with everyday practicality.

## Description

MTM ammo cans are a great way to store bulk or boxed ammo. Its all plastic design is lighter in weight than the 50 caliber US Military Surplus Ammo Can. Transferring ammo to and from the range, just became a little easier! Ideal for ammo storage. Molded out of rugged polypropylene plastic, these comfortably handled ammo cans will hold up to some pretty harsh treatment. Utilizing MTM's tongue and groove O-Ring seal system for a superior water-resistant seal, the 50 cal can is designed to fit the same amount of bulk ammo storage as the original. A heavy-duty dual latching system makes for a better seal and less likely to open accidentally. Double padlock tabs along with molded-in stacking ridges, make these solid containers the perfect solution to so many storage needs. Made in the USA.

Review: Very good, secure, versatile ammo can - Good quality can with excellent hinges and locking levers. I mounted it on my Kioti tractor to be used as a toolbox. It is large enough to hold several large crescent wrenches, a variety of screwdrivers, pliers, and various other hand tools you may need in the field. The box has an excellent sealing gasket which is secured by good levers than press the top down perfectly, making for a dustproof and waterproof box. I added a 1/4" thick plywood floor inside the box so the mounting bolts through the box into the toolbox pan will not pull through the plastic. It worked perfectly. The price is excellent, and the shipping was fast. It should be fine as an ammo can, but I also highly recommend it as a toolbox mounted on your power equipment.
Review: Good Quality - for $10, you get a good value. These boxes are extremely tough. I've been using them for a while now. I mostly use them for storage at home. Mainly just to categorize and organize my ammo by caliber, brand, and weight. I filled one to the brim with loose (in small bags of 100) 9mm bullets. The weight including the box came out to 54lbs on the dot. The case does not show any structural weakness when I carry it by its handle and no bulging at the sides when sitting on the floor even with that much weight inside. However, I did notice a very small amount of sag in the very middle between the lid and body when carrying it by the handle (about 1/8 inch) but nothing that concerned me. With both latches closed I was completely confident that I could carry it around by the handle all day without issue. The sag was not enough to expose a gap but even a little gap could let moisture in so keep that in mind when you load these things up if you will be carrying them in the field and moisture or contamination is a concern. I imagine you could wrap a strap around the box and under the handle in the middle if you really had to but I feel like splitting the load up into more boxes would be the practical solution considering the price. All and all, I will continue to buy more as needed. This may be a insignificant point to most but I feel it's worth noting. The plastic these boxes are made of do not stink. Unlike a lot of cheap plastic products you may get from wal-mart or harbor freight that have that plastic solvent smell. Which in actiuallity is exactly what that smell is when and if you do smell it. They use solvents to help liquify the plastic and if not cured or treated properly, some solvent remains and can take months/years to evaporate out. During that time, your breathing it in if you keep anything like that inside your home. So for me, the fact that these are cheap and also do not seem to have any plastic smell to them is a major plus.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have one other question to the owners.. Does this have a mechanical hinge, or is it just plastic?**
A: The Ammo Can has separate molded hinges. Two on the cover and two on the can. They are hinged with  plastic pins on which  allow for the opening and closing of the cover.

**Q: What size lock do you need for this ?**
A: FYI - This ammo can does NOT fit a lock with a 3/8 in diameter shank. The 3/8in diameter shank is too large. The Master locks I purchased have a hexagonal shank - and this may be part of the problem - but I really don’t think so. You’ll need something smaller than 3/8 in.

**Q: Can this hold twenty 50rd boxes of 9mm, still in the box? Some reviews say yes, some say no.**
A: Yes, depending on the size of the 50rd box. It easily holds 20 federal boxes per can. It easily holds 25 fiocci 50rd boxes but I had the handle fail due to the weight.

**Q: Is this a good storage can for 12 gauge shot gun ammo?**
A: I fit 10 each, 25ct boxes (250) of 2-3/4" Federal #8  Target Load shot in this exact can. I removed all the rounds from the boxes and stacked them LOOSE in the ammo can... you won't fit much otherwise.Anyway, I could probably fit another LOOSE 25ct box but I like the easy 250.
