Cartridge box tins.

[keith herring]

I bought a rerpoduction 1839 pattern cartridge box to go with my 42 springfield only to find out it did not include tins. Any suggestions on where to buy a set? Most of the suttlers seem to sell them with the box not by themselves. Thanks.

I believe MB&S sells them; if not they can let you know where they get there's as they offer the M1839 Cart box.

Take some measurements then even try ebay, I see tins there once in a while. You need your exact inside measurements of your box when you buy, whereever you buy them. I bought a set for a box and they were just a bit too big, luckily my son had a set that his were a bit small. We traded and it worked out well.

You might also try C. & D. Jarnagin in Corinth, MS. They have a good line of tinware.
