Is there any aftermarket source for these cans : 3 handles + a large oval stamped on each sides + made of plastic (not sure about this one ) ? They are omnipresent on OIF pics.
I know that Maple Leaf has issued a resin set of similar cans (canadian army) but is there any other option ?

Hey Frenchy,
Those can offered by MapleLeaf are of the same style used by the US forces. I just orderd some of these myslef.

To say the truth, I was not totally convinced by the picture showing this set on Maple Leaf website Maybe you could give me your opinion when you receive it ?

Can't say I've heard of the company "Maple Leaf" before. A quick web search didn't come up with any hits. Help?

Frenchy,
Clean cast from Joe over at Maple Leaf. I would order again if I need them
As for Armand's stuff, I do nto recall if he had some. But if so, no questions asked. Armand's stuff is great casting.

Thanks for your response Dave. I think I will go the Maple Leaf way...I have checked about Armand Bayardi's products but they are older style steel gas cans
