Ammo pouch questions

[Josh Beckett]

How can you tell if your k98k ammo pouch is luftwaffe or kriegsmarine or SS marked? What is a russian capture ammo pouch value?

Luftwaffe issue will have an LBA stamp, usually inside the middle pocket flap. Kriegsmarine are normally stamped with an eagle over an M on the reverse of the pouch; can't say I've ever seen a good SS pouch but I believe they too are stamped into the reverse of the pouch. A "Russian capture" K98 pouch is probably worth what a non-capture piece is, depending on condition and markings.

Did the Russians remove the clip dividers on all of there captured pouches?
