JMB1943 Posted 4 February , 2018 Share Posted 4 February , 2018 This is my first venture into British Army equipment. The top of the bottle is lipped, while the base is flat. The carrier is made of leather straps (about 4 mm thick x 15 mm wide) riveted together. The two metal rings are non-magnetic (brass ?). There is a jury-rigged leather strap (thin) attached to the top cross-strap that wraps around the spout and attaches to the cross-strap at the rear. This thin leather wrapping is quite fragile, so I cannot unwind it to check for stamps on the underside of the carrier. I cannot tell what pattern carrier this may be, so what do the equipment collectors think ? Regards, JMB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
