What makes the 38 Special box special


Caliber-specific fit
Slots designed according to CIP dimensions give each cartridge a firm, defined hold – play and rattling are minimized. Constructed according to CIP standard dimensions for 38 Special.


Hinge lid with latch lock
The lid is attached at the back via a hinge and flips fully backward – the cartridges then stand upright and ready to grab in the securely seated insert. A latch lock at the front keeps the lid securely closed during transport; to open, simply release the latch.


Stable & durable
Sturdily printed with thick walls: holds together in the gun cabinet, range bag, and at the range. Reusable instead of disposable box.


Caliber marking in multicolor print
The caliber marking is multicolor integrated directly into the box print – permanent, without stickers or engraving. In a full gun cabinet, you immediately grab the right box.


For sport shooters, hunters, and reloaders


Reloaders: one box per load (powder type, charge, bullet) – batch cleanly separated and clearly marked in multicolor instead of mixed loads.

Sport shooter: one box per discipline or firearm – defined quantity per box, ammunition count at a glance.

Organized stock: uniformly labeled in the gun cabinet, ready for range, hunting ground, and range bag.


Made in Westerwald
We print every box here in Westerwald – no container import, no anonymous mass production. Printing is done largely with solar power from our own 22-kWp photovoltaic system. Material: Filamelt PLA+ 2.0.


Frequently asked questions about the 38 Special box


Do my reloads fit too?
The box is designed for CIP-compliant cartridges. Own loadings with longer overall length (long bullets, shallow seating depth) can be tight near the upper OAL limit – if in doubt, ask briefly in advance.


Does the lid pop open in the backpack?
No. A latch lock at the front keeps the hinge lid securely closed so it does not accidentally open during transport. To open, release the latch with your finger; the lid then flips backward. Slight manufacturing tolerances are possible.


Are the boxes suitable for transport?
It is well suited for transport in the range bag – as an organizing and storage box. It does not replace a legally required safety container (WaffG/AWaffV) and is not a dangerous goods packaging.


Can the box withstand heat (e.g. summer trunk)?
Yes, it remains dimensionally stable under normal storage. High continuous heat – like in a hot car trunk in midsummer – is not suitable for PLA; the box is not intended for that.


What are the tolerances in 3D printing?
Slight tolerances are part of 3D printing. The cartridges still find secure hold in the...
Slot – a minimal play remains due to the design; pressure on the bullet nose is avoided as much as possible.



No more loose cartridges
