G43/K43 Ammo Pouch

Description

G43/K43 Ammo Pouch (Patronentaschen G43/K43). Soldiers issued with the G43 were also equipped with a single, specially designed, dual compartment, ammunition pouch. The pouch held two ten round magazines (7.92mm ammunition) and was worn on the belt. Originally the G43 ammo pouches were constructed in blackened and brown leather, which was soon altered to ersatz in order to conserve leather. This is a brown leather pouch with brown leather belt loops. The pouch is nicely maker marked and dated with 'bla 1944', indicating production by the company of 'E.G. Leuner GmbH' from Bautzen. Pouches from 'E.G. Leuner' normally are only found in black, this is the first brown coloured pouch from this manufacturer that I've had on offer. The pouch is in overall good condition with minimal age toning, there is some rust on the metal parts. Hard to find variant in good condition!
