British WW1 Medium Mark A Whippet Tank, Hotchkiss Machine Gun Ammunition Box, O 1606 - O 1606

This is an original WW1 British Hotchkiss ammunition box for holding the stripper clips for the British .303 Hotchkiss machine gun mark 1* used in the Medium Mark A Whippet tank in 1918. The Hotchkiss air cooled machine gun was the M1909 model in .303 calibre instead of the French 8mm Lebel cartridge. The clips held 30 rounds in the straight pressed steel clips and were used in the Medium Mark A Whippet tanks in the First World War in the .303 Hotchkiss machine gun mark 1* which had no pistol grip and could also use special 3 round linked clips. This ammunition box is made of pressed steel with a removable top and retains most of its original grey finish with a blue band and stencilling. The stencilling reads MARK V TANK MEDIUM MARK A (This was the Whippet tank carrying 4 Hotchkiss .303 machine guns used in the First World War). HOTCHKISS AMMUNITION BOX. There is also a white label inside the lid of the box describing how the box is to be packed. There are 2 leather closure and handling straps at both ends of the box and are in perfect condition. The price for this rare British tank ammunition box includes U.K delivery. O 1606
