That's right-The Sutler's Store here in UK provides enactment stuff & of good quality.
I'd been going to suggest looking nearer home.
The box I use is the CSA version.

So James, I'm guessing you mean the Civil War era percussion cap pouches that have the wool in them to keep things from falling out and bouncing around?
My black "Union" model even has a double flap over the top. The main outside flap and a smaller inner flap. Them percussion caps were important to hang onto.
My brown "Confederate" model has the double flap, but no wool inside. Sorry, had them both so long can't recall where they came from.
Anyhow, my point was that its the double flap and the wool inside that provides the protection against loss...if we're talking about the same thing.

I have seen them in an army surplus and thought it would be good for the same purpose,
great minds think alike.
or is it idiots seldom differ?

Spot on Ron-CSA natural colour-solid leather with double flap + wool: but I removed the wool.
All I can add is that it makes my life easier.
