    Box - translation assistance

    Greetings,

    I have recently acquired this box. I think it may be for grenades. Any kind assistance is appreciated.

    -George

    It says "Type 91" on it. Beyond that I can't say.

      Type 91 fuzes, 20 per box; with Caution regarding storage of box. The link below leads to a naval munitions site.

      九一式傳火筒

      二十個入
      20 pieces enclosed

      About the fuzes


      注意
      CAUTION!
      etc., etc., etc.



      I remember translating a similar box and the caution had to do with the proper storing position of the boxes.

      The link I supplied says something like:
      In the case of using a timed fuse of a type without gunpowder cap, the Type 91 fuze is used by being mounted in the explosive charge cavity of ammunition.
      ... but that's a wonky "google translate" rendering slightly cleaned up by me .... who doesn't know anything about these things.
