MIKES Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 A 1942 ammo box which is in good general condition. Unfortunately, has quite a bit of overspray on it from where it sat in a workshop but this would probably clean off. Stamped on the box is 'C190' 'IV' and n 'S' in an extended lozenge shape. The stenciled writing (best that I can make out) reads: 28 CTGS OF 2PDR H.V.M. k VIII GUN H.E. MK23 FOIL HV LINKED HSCT 134-055 RNC 3927 16.NO1 MK1 FLP GO Approx dimensions are: 21" long, 14" wide, 8" high. Anyone who have a suitable vehicle / gun to go with it? It's heavy duty so collection only for a donation to this site upkeep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian Barrell Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 They are quite a common box, likely because they are quite robust and galvanized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
