Re: Patronenkasten 41(45) ?
No Waffenamts on the lid anywhere? That's odd.
Re: Patronenkasten 41(45) ?
So far i couldnt find any stamps.
Notable is the color, maybe used by the kriegsmarine?
Does any other nation produced the patronenkasten during or after the war ?

Well that's a cool one. Hopefully this mystery is solved, would be interesting to see if this is wartime or not. Certainly simplified for faster production and less material usage.

Crude but effective.
Looking through google pictures since days and didnt find a
singe similiar patronenkasten, even on trader sites like kpemig not a single one of them.

Lots of members from the EU on there who might know the origin.
