Enfield1940 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Hi, Amongst a recently purchased job lot was a 58 Pattern compass pouch that had been turned into a field dressing carrier* by removing the padding and a 58 Pattern right-hand ammo pouch** that had had the yoke and poncho carrier attachments removed so that it can only be attached to a belt. I was wondering how typical these modifications are and why you’d modify an ammo pouch in that way? (A supplementary ammo pouch?) The Energa launcher sub-pouch is still intact. Cheers, Mark *It had a field dressing in it. **Annoyingly it’s a scarce Mk1 with the ‘stiffeners’ in the sides of the lid. The internal magazine support strap has also been removed.
