    Rucksack ID needed!

    Any thoughts on this rucksack? It is constructed out of typical lined (red in this case) canvas, which is considered late war right?
    No markings I'm aware of. Leather looks german, as well as the metal parts (of which some are painted black).

    Black thread has been used to stitch the leather parts.

    Interesting is the re-enforcements around the pocket-flaps, which is made out of greenish hbt-material?
    The rings to put the string through are aluminum. It has a quick release-hook, made of lined canvas material, etc...

    The rucksack is in very good condition and it looks like it has never been used. Late-war? Post-war constructed with wartime material?

    Anyway, due to my rather poor english skills, I'll post some detailed pictures of the a/m features so you'll get a better idea...

    Thanks in advance for your help

    Cheers

                    its kinda shooting in the dark...

                    fabric is real - so pack could be late war GJR/infantry one.. or maybe post war civil production from remaining materials....
