Ammo cans are one of those products that never really go out of season. Shooters want them for ammunition, contractors want them for hardware, preppers want them for the pantry, and just about everyone else finds a use for one the day it shows up. When dealers ask whether we have them, the answer is usually yes. This time it’s a very big yes.

We’re currently sitting on over 46,000 ammo cans across five different styles. Most of that is the classic 30 cal and 50 cal cans everyone knows, but we’ve also got 40MM cans, 81MM mortar cans and 81MM mortar cases for customers who need more room. Here’s what’s on the floor, and why it sells.

A lot of our dealers would rather not key orders in by hand, and some of them aren’t permitted to. Their purchasing department runs on EDI, and a supplier either fits that workflow or doesn’t get the order. We’ve been trading documents electronically with retail partners for years, so that part isn’t news.

What’s news is what sits underneath it. We retired the third-party layer and replaced it with EDI software our own team wrote. Same standards, same documents, same obligations to your system — now built on top of our catalog, our stock and our order flow instead of bolted on beside them. It’s live today, and it has already proven to be a cleaner fit for the way we run wholesale. Here’s what it means for your buying team.
