Dark blue webbing

Hello

GP 35 webbing holster , manufactured by Tawo in 1967 for belgian gendarmerie

Gd / Rw = Gendarmerie / Rijkswacht

Three pouches :





the two larger models , designed for Sten magazines , are 12X7X26cm approx.and have a white stamp inside

RVD..or AVD 1952


the smaller one (for .303clips?) is 12X7X20cm approx. and have inside a yellow stamp


GIE DV 51

Nice pieces - I have also been collecting the GD/RW webbing.

I have the large and small basic pouches, as well as the following items. I wonder how many different components in total were manufactured in dark blue? Small packs? Shovel carriers?


charger clip pouches (with matching serial numbers)



canteen carrier (cup and canteen are marked ABL)



webbing strap, 48 inches long



webbing belts





holsters - one of these was a trials item for the FN Barracuda pistol



M51 helmet and liner, with badge

Interesting Items. Thanks for showing.
