Hi guys, long time reader first time poster. Just wanted to say what a great site and thanks for all the useful info over the years, before asking for a little help with an item. I picked these up awhile ago because it seemed so interesting, but was unsure as to what it actually was.
I was sold it as a L & R pair of British 58 Pattern double ammo pouch, though it looks a different than any I have seen before. Heres a pic sorry for the quality.
The centre pouch is large than the forward one, and imagine is for grenades or smoke. The front one can accommodate 3 AR sized mags but don't have a 7.62 one around to test fit.
There is a makers tag for H Fine & Son, gives a company address in Middlesex and a phone number, the code of which is before all the codes changed in the UK placing the item pre 1990.
Has anyone seen this type of pouch before?
