Guns: The Perfect Range "Bag"


When you're toting several handguns and a few hundred rounds of ammo, you need something sturdy. From what I've seen, the cheapest and best solution is to grab an old army surplus ammo can. Aside from low cost and wide availability, the ammo can has many other advantages:

1) The thing is practically weatherproof - I bet you could take one into a heavy downpour without getting much moisture inside.

2) It's just the right shape - a nice, square, rigid box that can accept many, many boxes of commercial ammunition.

3) (Related to #1 and #2) It's durable - no stitches, no seams, no fabric, just good old-fashioned metal. You can kick it around some and it won't be worse for the wear. It also has a tough handle and enclosing system.

4) It has a lot of smooth, open surface - perfect for adorning with your favorite gun rights stickers and/or ironic stenciling.

5) If you ever find something better, you can use the ammo can for geocaching.
