1937 MKII Webbing Ammo pouch by Kay Canvas
1937 MKII Webbing Ammo pouch by Kay Canvas
The MK2 pouch is a hybrid of both the MK1 and MK3, it was introduced around 1940 after Dunkirk as it was found the low hanging MK1 could get in the way of soldiers legs and so the C belt clips were moved down 3cms. The pouch still retains the 3 clips inside of the top flap.
The pouches when worn are obvious that they are not the early MK1 and can be seen worn from 1940-42 by Home Service units and in North Africa.

Part of our range of quality 1937 webbing made by Kay Canvas. The Kay Canvas webbing closely matches to an original set of webbing which was issued during WW2. To ensure a high standard of accuracy it was colour matched to an original set of 1937 webbing. The Kay Canvas webbing is a tight weave like the original and is still made on an old BIC factory machine that has been lovingly kept alive after 100 Years. The brass fittings on Kay Canvas webbing sets are die stamped and the press studs have the same pattern as an original WW2.
