Most Helpful Positive Review USED MIL, GREAT!
These 40mm Cans are AWESOME! Yeah, they have some dents and surface rust on the corners, but they are Legit 40mm Cans! The lot numbers are spray painted (The Marine Corps made us do that when I was in) but who cares? I ordered 3 more to stock on the cans I pillaged off the Rifle Range years ago! The...

Great but whats that smells??

by TJ, Verified Owner from IN, United States Written on August 20, 2023
�First the description that optics planet gave was fair. They also stated that they were used, and only going to be sold for a limited time. I purchased one for my Slug rounds for deer hunting holds a ton so many that the thing weighs about the same..a ton. A few scratch and dents but the seal is in excellent shape as well as the hinge and all handles. Now the smell, yeah that smell took a washing with Dawn, spray down with Lysol, and left outside for 5 days in the sun to neutralize that sardine can smell from 1945 lol. But it is just fine now and works super for me. Thank you OP for another good product.

Im happy with these cans

by Chris, Verified Owner from FL, United States Written on April 2, 2023
After reading the reviews, and seeing what some said, I was concerned. I decided to buy two, 1) so that i would be close to free shipping, 2) because then I had a better chance of getting a good one. One of them is practically unused, brand new other than some surface scratches, the other has orange spray paint in several places, and VERY slight surface rust in a few places. For what I paid I am happy with my purchase. Be aware, if you fill these to the brim with ammo, you may be unable to lift them, or you may damage the handle. 40MM rounds are very large so not many fit in here, if you fill this square full of 9mm loose, you’ll have over 3k rounds and it will weigh a LOT
Pros:
  • cost
  • Storage
  • Durabilaty
Cons:
  • Weight (but expected and accounted for)
Would recommend: Yes

Pros:
  • None
Cons:
  • False grading
Best Used for:
  • Not much
Would recommend: No

Great Cans - Great Deal

by Woody, from TN, United States Written on December 30, 2022
I am very happy and impressed with the quality. Rubber seals are in great shape. I initially attempted to buy from different vendor but the shipping cost was outrageous. Optics Planet never disappoints.
Pros:
  • Rubber seals in great condition
Cons:
  • None
Would recommend: Yes

Not Grade 1

by Joe, from NC, United States Written on November 17, 2022
Advertised as Grade 1, but the 2 I received are dented, rusty, and with black spray paint all over them. False advertising even at just $20. I would say both can fall into Grade 3, maybe one of them could be Grade 2 if you squint and look the other way.
Pros:
  • None
Cons:
  • Not Grade 1
Would recommend: No

True grade 1, genuine milsurp can

by Kingwiththeax, Verified Owner from SC, United States Written on November 8, 2022
This is a fantastic can at a fantastic price. Mine has near zero rust, despite having stored shellfish in the past— they aren’t kidding when they say it stinks inside! A couple of hours in the open air fixed that issue. There are no dents. The inside is nearly immaculate. Some bonehead sprayed green paint over the cool NATO ammo markings on the outside, for no discernible reason. I believe these were used once, then surplused. This size can holds about the same volume as three .50cal cans. It’s about the maximum size you want to have if you plan to fill it up and still be able to move it around. They also have little fences on the lid corners so they stack perfectly This is a good price, and OP will still ship it free (if your order qualifies) even if you include these bulky, heavy babies. This is gonna go in my Jeep to carry tools and recovery straps.
Pros:
  • Cheap, good condition, genuine surplus, useful
Cons:
  • Smells
Best Used for:
  • Storing things
Would recommend: Yes

Great shape, smell terrible

by Wing, from CA, United States Written on September 19, 2022
Not sure what previous life these lived, but by the very strong odor, it was for storing shrimp out in the sun. Had to immediately place them outside, and hose them down with dawn. Still attracting raccoons. I'll give them another wash tomorrow in an attempt to salvage any practical storage use. Surprised they didn't require a hasmat lable. No wonder they are final sale.
Pros:
  • Sturdy ammo can
Cons:
  • Smells worse than a TJ donkey show
Would recommend: No

great for storage

by JohnyB, Verified Owner from IL, United States Written on August 10, 2022
Large cans and good quality. Had to air them out but that is normal. You can fill them but then you have to carry them, they are much larger than a 50 cal can. I’ll be getting more a few more of these. They also stack nicely
