Maybe it's not a silly question, I don't know. Seems silly but I can't be the only one to not know:
What's up with ammo cans? I know ammo has to be stored somewhere and carried somehow, but how did the uniform shape and type of ammo cans evolve? Why not an ammo backpack or something made of plastic? Of course as far back as ww2 many materials we take for granted today weren't available. Is there a whole niche of people collecting ammo cans and studying ammo can history? Maybe someone can post how far back they go and why they are designed the way they are.
