Whoops. I bought an ammo can today at the gunshow (2 actually) and noticed when I got home that the little swinging rectangular wire-loop (I assume it's a handle to help with opening, or something to aide in transportation) had been put on backwards, with the break in the wire actually in the middle of the exposed loop, rather than behind the hinge where it's supposed to be. I didn't even really think about it, I just figured that would be easy to reverse, just bend it, slip it out, and rebend it in place.
SNAP!
It is no longer. Well, actually it is, it's just in 2 pieces.
The red part in the photo (not my photo) highlights what I broke.
I figure a welding torch and some wire of the same guage would be an easy replacement, just heat it up with the torch and bend it into the same shape, then cut and put in place.
Agreed?
