Tonomachi Posted January 21, 2020 Share #1 Posted January 21, 2020 I found this at the flea market last weekend and was wondering if anyone recognizes it as to which country and era as the inside stenciling is very hard to make out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triplecanopy Posted January 22, 2020 Share #3 Posted January 22, 2020 Your ammo pouch looks remarkably similar in size and shape to the US 1908 model made for 38 Caliber pistol ammo. It appears that yours has US markings inside the flap. Perhaps an earlier design? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonomachi Posted January 22, 2020 Author Share #4 Posted January 22, 2020 Thanks for you response and I will post this on the US Forum to see if anyone recognizes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonomachi Posted January 22, 2020 Author Share #5 Posted January 22, 2020 I put this on the US Forum and members identified it as Romanian (communist era) ammo pouch (see links). http://www.rollanet.org/~stacyw/romanian_m44-sks_sling.htm http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/337639-unknown-possibly-early-leather-ammo-pouch-find-at-flea-market/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplecanopy Posted January 22, 2020 Share #6 Posted January 22, 2020 Thanks. It has US on the inside flap, so It puzzles me. Always interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wake1941 Posted January 22, 2020 Share #7 Posted January 22, 2020 Thanks. It has US on the inside flap, so It puzzles me. Always interesting. Maybe for export once communism fell ? Just a guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
