Does anyone have photos of military ammunition cans mounted to work as saddle bags?

Also curious how you might have attached the cans given the weight. Thanks--

Grellman,
the 40mm Grenade cans are the ones I modified for the Delaware Marksman.

That would be at the links that FXD2003Rider posted above.

My cans are much more compact and just barely hang out past the shocks.

Ammo cans rust, and are made of thin metal and rattle. If you use them, I almost think they would have to be powder coated. Also think they would be a bit small for anything other than tools and odds and ends. They make great key boxes, lock boxes, hazardous material storage etc.. With a liner maybe a great tool box?

But IMHO look like hell on a normal bike.
