Canadian Web Utility Pouches – ZL&T 1941

Original WWII Canadian Webbing Utility Pouches for Bren Gun helper. Originally issued in matched left-and-right pairs, these Canadian pouches were designed to carry more ammunition, the set was often issued to the Bren Gun helper so he could collect spare magazines from his squad once they got into action. Worn over the shoulder with one pouch on the chest and one on the back (pouches are also stamped “Front” and “Rear”) the web yoke and wraparound strap system kept the load secure. Larger than standard basic pouches. The pouches are dated 1941 and made by ZL&T. Ltd.
