M69 body crate

Here's a complete crate w/internals for the M69 practice grenade bodies. As can be noted, this held 50 bodies. Now all I need is a can/crate for the M228 fuzes. The displayed grenade actually came out of the crate, so it's minty new. Except for the spent fuze. The opportunity is there for acquiring a full, unopened crate, but it exceeds my ord budget by about ten-fold, so will have to put it on my get list for after I win the lottery.

Hi Slick,
Great box. Especially nice to see the inner cardboard box. Good luck on your quest for the Fuze crate! It will only take a few years to fill them......
