I would agree that I have never seen a "factory issued" wood presentation case as an option for any Model 52. For sure, there were a lot of these boxes made and offered for accessory sale after the fact, but I can't say I am aware of them offering it as a shipped, factory option.
I would also say that I am a bit curious just how well the pistol fits the cutout for the pistol inside the box. Does it truly sit in there as if the cutout were made specifically to cradle a Model 52? Then again -- this blue plastic insert also seems hard for me to picture, does this insert fit the box perfectly as if it were made for the wood box or adapted to fit the wood box?
Pictures are always a wonderful addition to any discussion but in this one, it seems an absolute necessity.
