Looking for a 3.7" Anti Aircraft steel ammo box. (The long ones, about 1.2m x 50cm x 15cm) Doesn't need a lid and any condition as long as it is straight.

Jack,
The Bren mag storage cases are the same box so probably more chance of finding one of those,there was one on Ausy e-bay a month ago ! Rob.................rnixartillery. |

Rob, sorry, but the Bren Mag chest is about a third of the length of a 3.7" ammo box!
Jack, Try Bill Toole in Wodonga. He has a stack of 3.7" boxes, many still with WW2 markings. |

I've come across quite a few 3.7 ammo cases over the years and I own three but had not heard of the 50 mag chest until reading your posts Rob.
Tony's experience must be similar to my own. Any Aussies out there who have sighted the 50 mag chests here? If you're stuck Jack you can have one of mine, I just have to transfer the contents into something else. David

That's interesting David,quite a few of these boxes have Australian packing notes inside and I think most of them came across with the Lithgow Brens when they were sold off in great numbers 20 odd years ago which is why I assumed
