Has anyone tried the new eBay jerry cans in the old mounts? Do they fit or function worth a flip?
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Mine seem to fit ok, no forcing, tight but drop in, the holders that will not allow a drop in I find that the corners are bent in, a 3lb hammer fixes that.If you're referring to the modern Scepter cans in the old mounts, they do seem to not fit properly. You can force it in but I assume modern jerry can mounting brackets are larger in the corners to accomodate the Scepters.
That looks a lot like the Jerry cans made by Midwest. Except without that incredibly retarded epa approved "safety spout". Seriously, who thought these new gas can spouts were such a good idea they are mandatory!?I guess that was kinda broad question! This is the ones I'm talkin bout.

That's the trick to finding a useful gas can in general. Not just Jerry cans. Find "water" cans.I know the cans aren't illegal yet in all states (even when used for their intended purpose), but yes I have seen some cans that have "for water only" or some such language.
