Title says it all.

Let me know if you have anything for sale or can point me in the right direction of someone who has them.

Thanks!

Made from leather (not pressstoff) - Marked N.R.12 on the front left of the flap. Leather strap in good shape. The divider for the AA sight has been removed (commonly done during wartime to fit more stuff in the pouch). Seams are in good condition. Leather is not brittle. $130 plus postage.

Thanks for the reply. I'll have to pass though. I'm hoping to find something less expensive for re-enacting use.

I'll check those out. Thanks.

Oh, I did find a bunch of MG pouches for sale on various boards. What does 1/6th scale mean? They seem pretty cheap. ;)

1/6th is a scale for a toy/doll. It makes it a pain when you are searching for parts.

I use a postwar Yugo mg34 pouch for Reenacting. It looks just like the wartime one and the rivet pattern is correct unlike the majority of the repros. They can be purchased for $65 at Ohio Ordnance.

I just got a repop pouch from Frank Barone.

It's damn nice and correctly riveted unlike most of the repops out there.

What price and condition are you looking for? I have one that has seen much use.
