What do ya do with youe empty surplus ammo crates?

[rob350]

Just wondering if anyone found a cool or creative use for the surplus wood ammo cases?

Other than storing empty stripper clips in them...

 

[starpuss]

i store food in them.(cans)

 

[bfiles]

I keep my movies and seasons of tv shows in them, on display on my mantle

 

[broncoo]

I've got a piece of glass I'm going to use to turn 4 crates into a coffee table.

I give them to my buddies. They get a real kick out of having an emty ammo crate, and it gives them a good conversation piece. I have no use for them, not enough room in the basement.

I would love to see this. For some reason I don't think this would be placed anywhere your wife could see.

i go to the lcbo and they have old wine boxes and they are nice wood boxes. i throw some cheap dollar hinges on them and i use them to store ammo, and gun powder in. i know its not ammo crates but they are already in use for ammo. also the lcbo wine boxes come in different sizes and they look really good

I burn them during winter months when outside & burning brush from fallen trees.

I have no other use for them....

When I run out of 7.62x39 in my first crate, I'm going to repaint it to look like an American Ammo can. Right now the space that isn't filled with 7.62x39 has all my other ammo and empty brass in it.

I send them to Bombay India, they built condominium with them. Much stronger than cardboard.

After I brought my last case of 7.62x39 in the old wood case, my wife looked and me and said, "why does Roger (roger being my dealer from shooters choice in arrowwood alberta), always put your ammo in that military case?"

I almost drop the case on my foot laughing, i looked at her and explained, but i got a good laugh out of it.
