    I received a few more pieces of m/96 last week and noticed we don't have a dedicated thread for it's various components. And here we are now Smile

    Here are two pics of my basic loadout:

    This consists of yoke, belt, bandage pouch, two mag pouches, equipment pouch, and canteen pouch.

    There's a large amount of misc. stuff that's part of the m/96 system. One thing I don't have a picture of is a pistol holster. There's a signal pistol holster I've got pics of, but I don't now what the standard sidearm holster looks like. I have a drop leg holder for the holster and am interested in getting the two matched up.

    Nice - brings back memories!
    There is a lot of assorted bits and pieces that was introduced with the M/96 - or shortly after.
    I was even issued a toiletry pouch and a shoe-shining/sewing kit both in M/96 camouflage.
    Made by the same company that made the LBE.

    Here is a small text in Danish, from when the kit was introduced:

    I use one of the toiletry bags for my own travels. It's both functional *and* stylish Wink

    A quick look at my pictures shows the following items that are not pictured as part of the standard kit:

    1. Ammo bandolier, 40mm
    2. Ammo bandolier, 5.56 magazines
    3. Ammo, Karl Gustav
    4. Ammo, LMG belt (50 round?)
    5. Ammo, LMG belt (100 round?)
    6. Duffel bag
    7. Mapcase
    8. Pack, light, 25L
    10. Pack, medic
    11. Shelter half
    12. Sleepingbag cover

    I have some pictures of a few other items, but I am not sure if they are official M/96:

    1. Compass pouch
    2. Bayonet sheath cover
    3. Flashlight pouch
    4. Assault pack (similar to Bundeswehr type)
