1) US Pattern 1839 Rifleman's Box by H.A. Dingee, for belt only wear, no provision for sling. Sewn only construction, no rivets. Implement pouch on interior face. Large style US Patten 1857 brass plate, measuring 3.4" x 2.2" on face, second set of holes inside flap indicate that the earlier Pattern 1839 plate was installed a some point in time. The name R.J. Scott is lightly written inside the flap. Five-section tin replaced with wood block to hold 18 nominally .57 diameter cartridges. Quite possibly a US Navy modification and perfect for use with the .54 paper cartridges for the Jenks carbines and rifles. About good overall with some crazing and finish loss, with some ares of leather somewhat weak.

Two correct pattern tin-plated sheet iron magazines on interior. About good overall. Markings mostly legible, some finish loss, leather surface with white fat leaching present.
