Original U.S. WWII Small Arms .50cal M2 Ball Cartridge Model 1917 Wooden Ammunition Crate

Item Description

Original Item: Only One Available. This is a very nice WWII Issue "Packing box M1917" ammunition crate for 240 .50cal Linked Ball Cartridges, as used by the legendary Browning M2 "Ma Deuce" heavy machine gun. The front of the crate still bears the original stenciled packing information:

240 CARTRIDGES CAL. .50
LINKED BALL M2
FOR TRAINING
USE IN CONTINENTAL US
96 LBS LOT D.M. 20064
1.5 CU. FT. REPACKED LOT 96376

The crate measures approximately 18.5"W × 13 ½"H × 9 ½"D, and is constructed using nailed notch corners. It is a mid to late war example, and is painted wood with the correct yellow painted lettering.

Overall condition is very good, with the main discrepancy being the missing lid. Also, as shown clearly in the pictures, the crate is empty.
