36 of these mags fit in one of these in a way that is highly pleasing for my autism.
LCM of 16 and 36 is 144, making an order of 4 ac11s, and 145 mags the most cost effective way to wallow in your autism.
I'm a fan of the engraved tag idea. If there's a convenient way to attach those tags to MTM ammo cans (like this or this), I'd be down to buy at least a couple.
I found these cans to be very weak. The walls are too thin.
MTM boxes are far better. I have them packed as packed as can be, and they don't flex.
I've built something similar using point-to-point Wifi gear. It kinda sucks having to align to line up two antennae but you get much better range.
I am using Ubiquiti Networks (http://www.ubnt.com/) equipment used in
long haul Wireless ISPs. This equipment is inexpensive and uses
standard technology: Power-Over-Ethernet (POE), Wifi, so it's easy to tweak.
I'm using a 9 amp-hour battery and current draw is ~0.6 amps so that
comes out 10 hours or so. It would be trivial to tack on a Solar panel
or bigger battery. The charge controller takes POE as an input so it's
easy to recharge the battery.
Here are a couple pics:

The one I'm using is similar, and most definitely does not kill MJ smells from leaking out. The one I'm using is https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003ISKM9K/
but I think I need full water PROOF over water resistant. Looking at the metal ones as they claim fully sealed air/water proof. Maybe they'll be on black Friday sales... :-)
I use:

with a few of these tossed in:

They easily hold 1000 rounds each of the ammo I use (5.56x45, 7.62x39 and 9mm)
As far as ammo is concerned, it depends what he shoots - $60 is probably not going to get you much although I'm sure he'd appreciate it.
Ammo can "hamper" full of of cleaning supplies, gun socks & cleaning mats?
