Whughett, that's a nice range box all right. I had something like that for winter league rimfire match shooting many years ago.
Range box for cap and ball revolvers anyone?

Harbor Freight sells a wooden tool box that I use for my gun cleaning stuff. Has plenty of drawers and compartments and despite coming from China, is fairly well made. I have thought about making something similar out of the oak flooring I salvaged years ago, but that would make for a very heavy box. Anyway here's the picture:
It’s an exact copy of a Pychmar 5 pistol range box. I wore that box out then made two, one from pine and this one from oak.
This one has the main cavity taken up by a removable box that holds all the stuff needed for a day at the range shooting percussion revolvers. If desired the interior box can be replaced with a tray holding five hand guns.
That's a knockoff of a Gerstner tool chest. Wonder if it's made by the same Chinese company that makes the Gerstner boxes now.

I have one of these boxes. They are made overseas for Gerstner. They are very nice, especially for the money. Gerstner still makes their regular line in Ohio. A good number of older shooters at Canal Fulton used Gerstner chest for shooting boxes, either ones they used in their workplaces or boxes picked up from acquaintances or garage sales.
Canal Fulton .. have not heard that holy name mentioned in a long time.
