Double Magazine Pouch

David H · 05-13-2015, 07:51 PM

Hello,
I've been offered this Double Luger Magazine Pouch, unfortunately I don't have a clue about these, there are no visible stamps.
Is it German?
What date is it?
Is it Original?
What is it worth?

I have been told it was bought with a few early vopo items, but I haven't seen the East Germans using these.
Any help much appreciated

Regards
David

Having noticed the color difference between the closure strap and the rest of the pouch, I think the strap might be a replacement. I might be edging out on a limb, but I'm leaning toward old, if not original. Nice condition and workmanship, anyway.

If I guessed you put one Erma and one Mec-Gar in, for the pic, would I be correct?

Thanks, as said I don't have a clue,

The mags have been offered too, one Erma date?? and one DDR? 1950's ?

The first mag looks like an earlier MecGar. I have a couple just like it.

The magazine pouch is a modern one made in Pakistan. Really just junk.

I don't own any of it at present.
These are the only pictures I have, the seller offered 2 mags at £20 each ($30 each) and of course the pouch which is £60 ($90)

I wouldn't waste your money on the pouch. The mags are a decent buy at $30.00 each or Euro equivalent.

Thanks everyone,
Pardon my ignorance, but what sort of date are these Mags?? The base with concentric rings seems made of bakelite.
