I have a wooden transit chest for ten or twelve magazines in my collection. No photos at present but the same design as for the Bren drum mag transit chest for the same number. I'm aware of a metal box for the same quantity as this is listed in the Vocabulary of Army Ordnance Stores but I haven't seen an entry for a four-mag box.

Hi Richard
Thanks for the reply, we met some years ago when you displayed with Summer of 44 at W & P.
I've been told Bren 4 drum boxes are similar, do you have anything on them? Did they modify K gun drums to fit Brens?
Look forward to any info you might have.
Regards
Tiffy
