Tonomachi Posted January 21 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
triplecanopy Posted January 22 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? Collecting Worldwide Parachute Badges and Insignia from 1935 to Present. Buying single items or collections. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tonomachi Posted January 22 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/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
triplecanopy Posted January 22 Thanks. It has US on the inside flap, so It puzzles me. Always interesting. Collecting Worldwide Parachute Badges and Insignia from 1935 to Present. Buying single items or collections. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wake1941 Posted January 22 Thanks. It has US on the inside flap, so It puzzles me. Always interesting. Maybe for export once communism fell ? Just a guess Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
