You know, I've found it really damn hard to find stencils for ammo cans. Does anyone know where you can purchase them? It would be really nice to find someone with a stencil machine, but I would be happy with standard GI LC stencils for .45, 5.56, 7.62x51, etc.

Didn't turn out too bad. Decided to only stencil the top so I could swap out lids depending on the contents. Not too bad for grade trash ammo cans I picked up for cheap at Omaha.
