Hello, I'm coming to ask for help. I would need to get hold of a photo or drawing of a cartridge transport case for a 3,7 cm Flak 43. I know that the ammunition was stored in this case-like case in two bands facing each other, I think 8 rounds each, it looked quite similar to the German vz 24 hand grenade case. Thank you all very much, I really can't get my hands on this !!!

from Boepripasy Germanskoy Armii 1943, figure 277 is repeated in the 1946 edition. 3,7cm Flak 18, 36, 37 and 43 used the same ammunition according to this source.
The quality is what it is, but it might be enough at least for orientation

Great, thank you very much. I still need some advice or clarification - I am interested in the variant on the left, the quasi briefcase type - do you know if the case has any embossing on the outside or is it plain? I need to make it into a diorama myself. Thanks for your help

I found another picture in better quality - translation of the text "metal case model 18 for cartridges for 37mm anti-aircraft guns"
According to the drawing, it had diagonal folds "to the outside" - similar to some Soviet metal tool cases for military equipment (probably served as a pattern for them)
