MP40 38/40 pouches came in literally dozens of variations- this is one of the rarest and probably the most sought after- olive canvas with tan webbing. Mag pouches with web fittings were actually made throughout the entire War in medium gray, dark gray, field gray, olive, blue-gray and every type and shade of webbing was used at some time or another- but this color combination is regarded as "pure tropical" by the collecting community.

In truth, these pouches were used in all theaters where the Germans fought in WWII.

Our pouches use exact reproduction German WWII 16mm, 18mm and 25mm webbing, steel tips, HBT web flaps, and 100% cotton canvas. We have included several minor details- like the "H" pattern stitching on the closure loops and the HBT reinforcing on the raw end of the belt loops. Sewn with linen and cotton thread.

Fit: All pouches are test-fitted with original MP40 magazines. Note that the flaps take a tug to fasten- this is intentional because if the flap has slack in it, it won't stay closed. (They ease up once they break in.) One may have to push the magazines in and twist when the pouches are new to get the mags fully seated.

What all else fits in them? They're made for MP38/40 magazines. We cannot guarantee that they will work for any other magazines.

Materials made in USA, pouches partially assembled overseas. (If we did the hand-sewing here the price would double or triple.)
