Report

In1983, an Insurgent was attempting to purchase equipment for an upcoming training exercise and came upon a military surplus store in South Dakota, which was later found to be selling several pieces of anomalous military gear. The Insurgent in question bought an M2A1 ammunition canister for $7.83. After discovering the ammunition canister's anomalous properties following a three-hour training session at one of the on-base ranges, the Insurgent reported the ITEM to the base's lead researcher.

The ITEM in question is an M2A1 NATO ammunition canister that was manufactured in 1961 by an unknown company, and presents the anomalous property of refilling itself every time the rounds inside are depleted, and the lid is closed for 15 minutes. Until now, the ammo can has been known to be refilled randomly with: loose rounds of 12.7x99mm, loose rounds of 7.62x51mm, loose 12 gauge shells, loose rounds of 9x19mm Parabellum, loose rounds of 11.43×23mm, loose rounds of 7.62x63mm, and linked disintegrating belts of 12.7x99mm, 7.62x63mm, and 7.62x51mm.

On rare occasions, the ammo box may refill itself with an M26 hand grenade, C4 brick, or M4 Selectable Lightweight Attack Munition (SLAM) mine.
