My new favorite ammo boxes.

I've been reloading since the turn of the millennium and have a number of ammo boxes in different calibers. I've always hated those "live hinges" that are just thin plastic and want to always close back over no matter what you do.
The Franford Arsenal box with a real hinge is perfect. It's well made, good quality plastic, good latch that isn't difficult and doesn't feel like you're going to break it just opening the box. Feels like it'll last forever.
It's also very compact at least for 9mm Luger (9x19) The slots are just the right size that the rounds are tight together and fit perfect where they aren't sloppy and all over the place. (doesn't irritate my OCD).
My only complaint is that, at least with 9mm Luger, if I put the rounds in the box primer down, I can't get them out again as I just can't get a grip on the bullet end, but this has been a problem with my 9mm MTM box as well. Need smaller fingers I guess. It's not bigger overall then the typical 50 round cardboard box of factory ammo with the plastic tray in it.
Overall I'm happy with it and intend to buy more.
