checkit Posted August 12, 2016 Share #1 Posted August 12, 2016 Hello - I am listing this here as much of what I see from the Rock island Arsenal seems to be related to tanks & artillery. Large russet leather canister outside dimensions 12 1/4" tall x 6" diameter, stamped 15 5 455 R.I.A. with inspector initials. Any thoughts on this, fellows? Thanks in advance for any opinions you can render. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
42GMCCCW Posted January 15, 2017 Share #2 Posted January 15, 2017 Your leather canister looks very much like the ones used to store spotter scopes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
checkit Posted January 16, 2017 Author Share #3 Posted January 16, 2017 Thanks - I still have this, and have still been trying to figure out what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinb Posted January 16, 2017 Share #4 Posted January 16, 2017 That number is the Rock Island Arsenal drawing number. If you can locate a list of those numbers you may be able to tell what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
