Have you seen the ones from the Sportsman's Guide? (magazine that I get
about monthly) They are German, I believe.  I have a few of them and they
are every bit as good as the original American ones. Heavy construction and
a nifty set of name plates that you switch around to identify the contents.
They come in mil green but paint would probably change that.
