Wanted: Sceptre military water cans

Postby akaFrankCastle » Sat Aug 20, 2016 12:20 pm

Looking for 4-6 Sceptre brand plastic water cans. These are the water cans the military uses.

Military surplus seems to suck badly around here so I thought I would see what you guys can turn up.

If you find something, let me know how many and how much.

Thanks.

Boom. Check this place out. Haven't ordered yet but seems like a good source.

Drew just brought me one of these 5 gal water cans - I must say - it is pretty nice! He is hoping to grab a few of the fuel cans as well as a pour spout too.

Are they better than the OG steel NATO cans for fuel?

Yes and no. I like the spouts on the metal cans more. But the plastic don't dent or rust.
