Default Ammunition container ID

Hi

Can any kind member give me an ID on this tube? Owner says PIAT but I do not agree.

Dimensions are unkn at this time but from the photos, looks to be about 10 to 12 inches long and 4-5 inches wide.

Any help appreciated.

regards
Darrell

There is a sub caliber tray for a PIAT that takes a small diameter, white training projectile. The back of the projectile has a round spring clip to hold it in place before firing called a 'CLIP, LOADING'. It's probably for 500 of those.
