    Whole loading tool pouch is hand cut and made as far as I see ( the quality of leather is far worse than wartime - completely diffrent way of threating / taning the leather ). Compare the leather from main body of ammo pouch and leather of loading tool pouch.
    Very hard to tell but IMO it looks postwar made and added. IMO in wartime they would simply used piece of other ( damaged ) pouch. IMO whole work ( replacment of loops and strap for hooks + loading tool pouch ) had been postwar done.

      just like Marcin said - base pouches are ok, but loading pocket was added at some point - its not the same leather and looks hand made or made from some other pouches like these:
