Thanks for posting the pictures.

I assume the boxes are for tools but what are the items in each picture please. They looking interesting but I have never seen such things before.

Waff the item in the box is not a projectile, its a Justier device, something to do with the fuze setting device, Ben
 
The 3 first pictures are an adjusting tool and it's storage box for fuze timing machine built on side of the gun.
The next 3 items are calculator drums and their storage box for Kommando Gert 40 fire control computer. For different ballistic values these drums have to be changed. I'm not sure but assume when the control computer is changed from one gut to another caliber or so??

Does any member know what all should be the contents of these boxes? They are not complete.
 
Thank you for the info.
It all sounds quite complex and difficult to find all the correct items.

I knew there was a reason why I just stick to the Pak stuff.

Cheers
