chevpol Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 ok folks I have won off ebay a nearly complete set of 1990 dated webbing, whats puzzling me is that on top of the ammo pouches, there are plastic buckle halves (female), what attaches to these? Also, does anybody have a cemo/cefo list for this set of webbing? Finally, the bayonet frog has a buckle on the top (male), what does this attach to (I assume used when not on the webbing?)

blue red blue Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 to do with the day sack yoke if i remember and the frog, you need the female part which clips on your belt, but these were very very prone to breaking, cant say ive every seen one for sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Yep I agree with that. Loads of fixings on the day sack yoke/pouches to hang your goodies off of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue red blue Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 far to many for the average squaddie to work out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferretfixer Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 ok folks Finally, the bayonet frog has a buckle on the top (male), what does this attach to (I assume used when not on the webbing?) TTFN Mark Are you clear on your description of 'A Buckle on top of the 'Frog'. do you mean a Black plastic SCABBARD. Or a plain green or DPM Cammo pattern nylon webbing 'Over Scabbard'? If it's the Over Scabbard you refer to as a 'Frog'. Then the scabbard or Sheath to give it, it's INCORRECT title. Slips INSIDE the over scabbard / frog & the Male half of the buckle rotates over 180 dgrees & clips into the TOP of the plastic scabbard to retain it. On the rear of the overscabbard/ frog is usually a pair of brass 'C' hooks. also a web belt loop. The hooks are for positioning the frog/ overscabbard sheath to equipment or CBA wherever the wearer desires. The over scabbard usualy has a label inside calling it a FROG. There is available, a large black plastic clip which also clips into the top of the black plastic bayonet scabbard when the bayonet is worn with parade dress (No:2's) which enables attachment to a green nylon belt. I hope this clarifies things & is of some use to you? Mike....:coffee: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
