1 Attachment(s)

Hi,

The stowage sketch of LOYD Carrier inidating a 6 pdr gun tool box but I never seen this box in wartime pictures.
Does anyone have info (pictures or drawing or T.M.) for the 6 pdr gun tool box ?

Thanks in advance.

kurtis,

There isn't actually a 'Tool Box' listed in the 6 pdr Parts list, the nearest to it is the Box,Stores,6-pr.7cwt, Mk I (CM 371 A) and MKII (CM 1142 A).
The MKI is of wood construction and the MKII Steel.
I have a couple of MKI Stores boxes so I have attached a few pics, clearly the size of the box is different to that in the diagrams. :coffee

Looks very similar to the Bren, 100rd Drum Magazine box!
