Title: Containers for projectiles

Abstract: A molded two-part moisture and shock proof container produced from polymeric material intended for the packaging, storage and shipment of projectiles. Each half of the container has a substantially cylindrical configuration with an enlarged open mouth and the exterior surfaces include uniformly spaced longitudinally extending ribs; one half is exteriorly threaded adjacent the open mouth thereof for threaded engagement within the interiorly threaded portion of the mating half of the container. A novel method of exterior banding is provided so that assemblies of multiple containers may be produced. The top and bottom surfaces of the container are provided with concentric annular ribs for the reception of a disengaging tool to permit convenient separation of the container halves.
