Navy Luger mag and duel pouch- new member help!

OK, Here's where it get's complicated. The genuine Navy pouch can be worn along the shoulder strap, or, if there's more than one, stacked on the shoulder strap slanted towards the right. This is accomplished By having the side opening stitches uneven in length. The enclosed photo is of a Type 1 (shoulder strap) pouch that has been converted for belt wear by opening up the stitches at the sides and sewing up the top. You can see from the original stitch holes, how a strap entering from the side, would be angled. If the stitch lines on both sides were the same length, it would be a Portuguese pouch and worth much less. If such a pouch were to bear a C/M Naval mark, it would be an outright fake, like the one sold on Ebay a couple of weeks ago. As Ron said, the Devil's in the details. Regards, Norm
