Hi all - picked this one up the other day. I have never seen one like it. Over to you experts.

My guess
17 pdr box for 6 rounds.

Hmmmmm
Of course ...could be 6 pdr.

Fort Rodd Hill
They look like the cases that the ammunition for fort Rodd Hill's twin quick Firing 6 pounders came in.
Maybe Robert Campbell or one of those guys could confirm or not. |
C264 is for 6 pdr, it's not long enough for 17 pdr. Ajmac will be along shortly!

Thats the first one I seen thats not turned into a fuel tank. I had a couple made into extra fuel tanks for across the back of the Jeep to replace the rear seat.
I do recall seeing some on the front of a carrier in another thread. |
Box lids
I think they are 6 pounder because we had quite a few 6 pounders in storage here during the war and I have found some of the bins located with other 6 pounder parts.
A while ago I found a small pile of weathered but sound lids (and a few turnbuckle catches for them too) for these ammo boxes if anyone is interested... Cheers Phill |
If anyone has a spare....?
I've been looking for 1 or 2 C264 6 round boxes like this for a while. If anyone has one for sale, it would be most appreciated ! Thanks much, Paul
