Howdy Everyone,

 

  By some slim chance would anyone have a picture (or two) or crates for ammo for German mortars (specifically I am looking for a picture of crate suitable for a 8cm GrW 34 German WWII mortar, not the little briefcase style deals that come in the Tamiya kit that hold three rounds, but a bigger crate/ammo box that would hold rounds, or cases of rounds.

 I am just trying to find a picture to scratch build a couple of cases from, with out just making a generic "wood case" this is a full blown rivet counting exercise, just something in the same ball park even.

 Google hasn't been my friend (so far with this search)

 Thanks Kindly

     Dan

Have you tried Googling German WWII Artillery?

Thanks Goodness, I did find the site with the first picture, and it shows the "briefcase style" case, I was trying to find a bigger type wooden case that several of those smaller "briefcases would of come in or something. Surely the Germans didn't transport all their mortar ammo, in small 3 piece cases?

Hawkeye, thanks I am doing a general search for artillery now, maybe I was being to specific in my own search, just limiting it to mortar ammo cases. Like I say I am just trying to get in the same ball park here, with out obsessing about it (well obsessing to much at least Wink )
