Canadian version .30 ammo box ?

Hi Dirk,

The ammo box on my photo is of exactly the same design as the American made "cal. .30M1 ammunition box", only it was made in Canada (at least: I was told so).
It has that typical Canadian brown/green color.
There is no manufacturers name on the box.

It is said/writen that the Staghound was an American/British design but all the interior equipment is "American style".
I have never found any "British details" exept for the car being prepared to take the WS19 radio set.

Your ammo box is indeed completely different.
Quite remarkable how many different types of ammoboxes have been designed for use with the same machinegun!

Is this the only type of ammo box used in the Fox or is it the one mounted next to the machine gun ("ready box")?

Best regards,

Marco
