Ok, The top has all the shells in it. A panel swings up and secures to close off the shell top. The bottom has the z shaped part where the back half the gun goes upright and the long area is where the barrel goes. It is a loose fit. If loaded with shells and reloading devices, plus the gun, it is heavy. We could quibble about the efficiency of the design, but it is authentic. The case is not real sturdy, maybe that's why it is about impossible to find an original in good condition.
I should have one at the Southern, with a C Bernard hammer inside, or maybe Gary can bring his.
