    7.5cm KwK box

    Hi Guys,

    What do you think of this box.
    Does anybody knows if it was used for the StuG?









    Thnx for looking

    Here is another picture of the text.
    Looks like the printed over the original textline.

    What do you guys think. Was this common?

      I believe it is for Kwk 7,5cm rounds, ammo for the short early L24 barreled Stugs. 2 rounds in 1 box.

      There is a french web, 'Wehrmacht kiste' or something like that, where you might get some more info.

            Yes, for either Panzer or SturmGeschütz. When the guns were removed from these, they were used on some soft skin vehicles in Recce units.

                          Finding the box is 1 thing, but finding the shells......
                          If I see one I'll let you know!

                          Cheers
