Product description

Lot: Pair of metal military-style storage/ammo boxes — heavy-duty hinged lids, front locking latches and carrying handles. Both boxes show clear stamped codes (eg. 7506 and 427A12/82 40KG) and retain the black lid gaskets seen in photos. The lids open fully and the latches operate; original locking pins are present on the front hasps. These are solid, stackable metal boxes with a dark brown finish and authentic used patina.

Practical uses: Ideal for collectors, prop suppliers, vintage/industrial décor projects, workshop storage or for tidy tool and cable storage where a rugged metal box is required. Their compact footprint and working latches make them useful for market stalls, film/photo shoots or as display pieces for military-style interiors.
