AMERICAN AMMUNITION CANS
 

Again I've managed to finally find a photos of an American ammunition can used for bandoliered ammunition, this time I can't remember where it came from. If the photo belongs to you please contact me.

From Douglas K Wozny :-
The cans the loaded bandoleers are packed in is Box, Small Arms Ammunition, M2A1 (known in the USA as 50 caliber cans) and the specification that covers it is MIL-DTL-3060 and the drawing is 7553296.
