I have a similar box which houses an Iraqi (Dutch made) nightsight I 'liberated' in the Gulf.

Extremely strong and waterproof! :D

look out for the milan rocket cases, similar in size but plastic and very evry strong too. I saw some for £12 each, went to buy them but they had been sold by the time I made my mind up (d'oh!)
