Ammunition box Vickers No6

Krt7.92

Well-Known Member
Hello,

I've got this relic ammo box, it's missing a lid and the leather handles. Can somebody tell me who is the manufacturer B&Co Ltd? Also what is the meaning of the small marking C with an arrow 181 and the large L or 1 above 1916? If I understand correct: this box was introduced in october 1915 and already replaced in march 1916 by box No8 and No9? Any additional info is welcome.
