Uh...you guys know this thread was from 2007, right?
On a side bar about the 4 gallon cans, not all were disposable. We have a pair of 4 gallon cans at the museum that have the regular brass caps on them. |

Missed that Rob. So why did it it pop up again? A little enlightenment please Rob/Hanno. Kind regards.....Robert...... PS: Was in Calgary a couple of weeks ago and picked up 4 nice 25 pounder metal containers at our old friends at Ribtor, plus had a nice visit with Gordon from Crown Surplus. Bofors is still there. Cheers.....Robert

Rob, yes sturdier reusable 4-gallon cans did exist - usually stamped B.M.B on the base, but for these reasons they do not qualify for the prestigious 'Flimsy' title!

Interesting...
I have a tin similar to the flimsy in the shop...but with a pressed metal handle and screw cap....and NO army markings..might do to fill someones tin rack.
