Ok, so many many years ago I picked this chest I think from Sarco? Anyway it will hold 30 Luger pistols and is dated Sept 1942. This was back in the day when P08's were coming in from all over. I assumed this was how they shipped the pistols here bulk? Anyone ever seen another one of these? Stenciled on the side as you can see it says New Helvetia Trade Group Sacramento, CA. I looked that up and found they were an importer at one point.
