martynsmith Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Hi chaps I'm researching Falklands Scimitar and Scorpions and they all have extra stowage in the form of Rarden ammo boxes and/or 81mm ammo boxes. Does anyone have these boxes please? I'm after good photo's and accurate measurements? Thanks for any help in advance. Cheers Smudge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MatchFuzee Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 It looks like a C238 ammo container. Dimensions as on Ramco's ( http://ramco.uk/index.php?id_product=3919&controller=product ) sales site. External - 650 mm long x 240 mm deep x 245 mm high Internal - 620 mm long x 225 mm deep x 230 mm high Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferretfixer Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 LOOKS like the standard brown painted steel ammo containers. Which were used with a variety of Ammo Types & calibres. Yes, one of these would have held Two green plastic twin Bomb carriers. For 81mm Mortar Bombs. Making a total of four bombs to each Steel Transit Box.
