"he had to sew two kit bags together to cover the muzzle of the rifle." [previous posting]

This comment alludes to the fact that long arms were not allowed to be brought back unless they could fit in the GI's duffle bag. I have never heard of bags being extended, but many of the rifles have what is called a 'duffle bag cut'...ie, the wood is cut under the top sling and the barreled action is removed from the wood...that way, both could be put into the bag without a problem. I have repaired many of them...
