Interesting, I've never seen that configuration before. The top looks like the NATO cans we're familiar with but the bottom looks like the US style that would fit the con-fer type can holder. Maybe the best of both worlds?

Yeah, they look a bit different. I noticed they are selling new cans as well for $60. The claim they are genuine NATO surplus. Has anyone bout from them? I'm wondering if they're genuine or knockoffs. They have them in red which I would prefer to the green that deutscheoptik sells.

My dad found me this at a flea market for $5, I don't know where it's from or who it's made by, but it's brand new. It seemed to hold gas just fine over labor day weekend, other than it needing a gasket on the cap, so that's good...

If anyone knows anything about it, let me know!

I'd say the origin is US Marine Corps stock, made in 1979, based on that stamp.

We used to buy those USMC cans new for work. I finally found out they were US Metal Corporation or US metal Container (USMC), I can't remember which and not US marine Corps. I bought 8 of them at a yard sale a few years ago for 20 bucks for all of them. Some were treated inside and looked like brand new, others had rust but were serviceable. A couple of them were dated in the 1950's. I ended up selling most of them and going with the NATO cans.
