AimSurplus has a few different countries (South African, Lithuanian, etc) all about the same $$, although you do get a metal can with the SA stuff.

Anything to stay away from country wise? Any particular country's surplus to seek out?

Stay away from Indian as well.


If you can find Australian (sometimes marked ADI) get as much as you can afford and hold on to it.

South African and Lithuanian are average to OK.

Lake City is good too, but next to impossible to find these days.
