I just got in a wood ammo box that was supposed to be a for the 1917 browning. It is same size other than 2 1/2 inches longer and does not have the clipped corner. Made the same way other than the brass hinge is not inlaid nor the full width of the box. Has same inlaid handle setup as the 17 but on the end that opens it does have a large round knob about halfway down on the end. Looks like a heavy drawer pull. Nice box with all brass hardware and only missing leather handle. One guy told me it was some type of aircraft box but it seems a little heavy for that and another thought the knob latched on a Cold Digger setup. I got some pictures coming via e-mail tonight, never posted one on here yet so not sure if I can figure it out
. If this sounds like something one of you know please help me out. Thanks, Hotchkiss
