    I did a fair amount of research for the Bren box section of the book but really, you could write another separate book about just the bren mag box variables/makers/formats. They're a bit like the webbing and ancilliaries.

    I did see a HUGE pile of them, FULL of magazines awaiting destruction once. Those were just those in the UKicon Ordnance system and it was a vast amount. Alas, no more but they're still cheap for a collector.

    My dad had his car tools in one and the tools he kept in the boot in a wallet...........
