I think they have their place on custom rifles that are supposed to look period correct, other than that I think they're a waste of materials and time and are unnecessary. Maybe they could lower their costs a bit if they weren't wasting time and materials on something the majority of ML shooters don't use. Just my thoughts...

I have numerous rifles with patch boxes. As far as I am concerned they are for looks only. I have never used them for what they "might have been intended for."
