Why are these called "ammo" cans? They're just fucking boxes that people slapped a fancy name on so they could jack up the price. It's literally just a box.

Why are these called "ammo" ziplocks? They're just fucking resealable bags that people slapped a fancy name on so they could jack up the price. It's literally just a bag.

They’d never issue plastic-bagged ammo to Marines. Even if you ignore the litany of environmental issues, the suffocation risk is simply too high.

You are fucking idiots and if you have nothing to bring to the table then don't post

>nothing to bring to the table
Odd words for a man too poor to buy green metal boxes. Perhaps it is you who has nothing to bring to his family’s table.

Kek

I refuse to give money to kikes who make boxes and mark them up by slapping a fancy name on them you are absolutely fucking bluepilled

>airtight
>crush resistant
>stackable (this is actually really important)
I wonder why

>Green metal box is slightly more expensive than a non-green, non-metal variety.

No faggot. Those are cans. These are ammo "boxes".

In all fairness, it’s a pallet of cases of ammo boxes.

Fair enough.

Well, they’re containers for holding ammunition used by the military. But it’s also metal, making “can” more reasonable than “box” which can imply wood or plastic. It’s a “can” of ammo
But the name can also stem from the older, sealed “cans” of ammo which are made of metal and you had to cut open with a type of can opener, but this was more popular in the east rather than the west and they still use it today.
“Box” is a correct term, because it is a metal box, but we also have plastic and wooden ammo boxes, the metal ones are generally more rigid, meaning you can stack more with heavier weights, so they’re usually referred to as “cans” to be specific.
>tldr: ammo can is right. rim me, faggot.

>theyre called that literally just because it sounds better than saying ammo box
Not really. They're called cans for the same reason soda cans, soup cans, and trash cans are called cans. A canister is a metal container.

It's actually pretty funny to think that when those ammo cans were made, there were still civil war veterans walking the earth
