Today seems as though it would be $6 each for the military and $1 for the general public.

Every quarter we had to go through the ones on hand and throw away all that were over a couple of years old.  The industry pays no attention to shelf life for most rings and considers most to have an unlimited shelf life.  The few that are limited have a 15 year life.   I was always amused by the difference in cost, buying them on the outside.  The military delivered cost was 2 to 5 cents each while the same on the outside would run as high as 50 cents each.
