German WW2 Brown K98 Ammunition Pouch by RUM

£39.99 £33.32

Pair of brown leather ammunition pouches for the German K98 rifle.

The German army was issued the famous Karabiner 98 Kurz which is generally known as the Kar 98k or simply the K98.

The design of the Kar 98k ammunition pouches stayed basically the same during the war but as the war progressed the design was simplified to speed up production, like replacing stitching with rivets and the metal parts changed from zinc painted grey or black and at the end plain unpainted steel.

These quality leather ammunition pouches by Richard Underwood Military (R.U.M.) are a replica of the earlier war model with white stitching and D shaped rings on the back.

Kar 98k cartridge pouches by R.U.M. feature:

  • Two rows of white stitching on the front of each compartment this holds the securing flap of the compartment (on later war models the securing flap was riveted on not stitched).
  • The two belt loops on the back are stitched on at the top and they also have a riveted plate for extra strength (on later war models the plate was not used and they where just riveted on and not stitched).
  • The belt loop then passes through a leather strap, which is riveted, on the lower part of the back of the pouch.
  • Finally the belt loop is then secured onto the stud on the bottom of the pouch that secures the flaps on the compartment flaps.
  • The D loop on the back of the pouch is metal and is made in a “D” shape, later war models where made in the shape of a rectangle. The “D” bar loop is secured onto the pouch with a leather tab which is sewn and riveted on, later war models where just riveted on.
  • The “D” bar is where the combat Y straps connect to.
  • Each pouch has 3 compartments and holds clips of 5 rounds, a pair of pouches holds 60 rounds of ammunition for the Kar 98k.
