I have a few variants some are nice others not so nice its a bit dark to go out to the sheds tonight and cold /wet ammo tins I have from memory are six round tin with cardboard tubes in airtight screw down lid four round tins with cardboard tubes and safety clips /tit protectors in standard ammo box I think there is a smaller version of the six rounds tin as well but in damaged condition i will have a look and see what other shots i have on file now if not you will have to wait till i get a chance to take them I know one shot already posted has some four round tins visible on one trail leg see below Last edited by Rod Bellars (RIP); 25-08-15 at 09:52.

I'm a collector and moderator on BOCN. Any chance of some pics that I can add to the data base?

well clive it seems we have a mutual interest I believe in getting the gun and getting all the related tools and boxes related to the gun which is often far rarer than the gun itself and naturally i chase as many original markngs as possible .
I am always keen to trade and currently am after a nice pak36 ammo tin with excellent cardboard storage tubes intact as well as cleaning rods for same gun and some misc Shield spares . I am more than happy to further and help any collector site thats promoting collecting as well as happy to deal and exchange surplus. i have always had a keen interest in rare packagings all my guns have orignal period ammo containers ie 2pdr has wartime local made ammo tins red and green , canadian ammo tins , even post war naval landing ammo tns that were final production also used in sub cal 6pdr as already stated 17pdr usual two round tins and airtight cans 3.7" two round tins 4.2'' mortar original period boxes with stencilling and rare back pack three round carriers 3'' mortar wood and steel round boxes ,canvaz carry packs etc etc . will attach a couple of shots of recently sorted boxes been in sheds sorting last few days as still unpacking from moving across state 480 tons of gear and building sheds etc you may like to email me direct and discuss this further regards Rod Last edited by Rod Bellars (RIP); 25-08-15 at 09:52.

clive thats a nice display would have taken some effort to move all that lot i stopped doing such displays simply logistics and risk of damage each time but was a fun time ,now people come here for a look . you have some nice items there and good to see soemone taking the effort even on modern containers as they are gone so quickly is that a set of 4.2" tubes in carrier i see there and the cardboard tubes in the bofor box are they wartime ?
