Looking for mermite containers

Post by Fox » Wed Aug 23, 2017 7:16 am

Hello,
Does anyone know where I can get some US Mermite containers in good, used condition in europe? Belgium, UK, Germany.
With the insides would be nice but is not a must? At a reasonable price please.
Cheers

An Surplus store near me has them in stock, they may not be the US stuff but instead German Army (BW)

They have them with one big insert (13L) or with 3 seperate inserts (3x 3,5L)
