Tank Gewehr Rifle

Here is an authentic 20-round ammo pouch used for the T-Gewehr crews. It is on loan to me so I can make a copy for my collection, as these are extremely rare.

Found another period example of the ammo pouch, this one has a shoulder strap closure than the previous listed version, which would not be uncommon as by 1918, the Germans had to use whatever they could get their hands on to meet production goals.

Here is the copy of the bag I have made, with original and resin filler rounds.
