My freind just acquired this interesting, presumably rare, leather case for TSMG L drums:

....it is of American mfg'r, likley 1930's vintage, unmarked but with certain indications it is American made, not an import from Britain or anywhere else foreign.
It is precisely fitted for L dums, and appears to be a "factory made" item, not a one-off.
Anybody have any information or possible ID of this interesting drum case??

Nothing comes up on the site. But the case may be for a Lewis Gun drum and not for a Colt TSMG drum.

The leather cases were for the Lewis drums. The "L" drums fit but are very tight. I've seen a few ( 4-5) in the past couple years pop up here and there. But they were not for a Thompson.

We saw this same question with photos in the old posts. I think we were told it was for a lewis gun not a thompson.
