    Hey all, I've seen what it seems like is a million jerry can threads in my searches on here, but I did not see the answer to this question. I bought a harbor freight jerry can a few weeks ago. They seem to be made by Midwest Cans. Link here: The can is surprisingly good for the price (around $32 when paired with coupons), but the spout kind of sucks. Does anyone know of a solid metal / NATO option that is a direct fit to this style of can? Thanks in advance.

    I am a big el cheapo Harbor Freight products fan, it's like toy store for me and every month I spend pretty good amount of money there. I looked those cans but like you stated because of the plastic lid I didn't want to buy. I almost got these Sears ones but again was not able to decide it yet. I need two and don't want to spend money on Wavians. Overall, I might end up getting Wavians though. So, I am following.

    Do yourself a favor and buy the Waivians. If your El Cheapo gas can has a NATO style spout opening, then go to eBay and buy a NATO all metal spout, about $10 bucks.
    It is against the law to sell a gas can without the PIA newfangled spouts, but perfectly legal to sell separately the simple all metal NATO milsurp spout.
