1916 WW1 8mm German Belt & Ammo Pouches

(17 picture virtual tour)

Observations:

The belt buckle is stamped GOT MIT UNS (God is with us). Unsure why one ammo pouch has a "D" ring and the other doesn't. The 8mm ammo pouches are unmarked. Belt is marked BAG 4 100 on underside at one end, as well as Jos Kersten 1916 Crefeld on underside of the other end.

I have a belt and buckle as shown above. It was another trophy brought back by my grandfather from WW11. Included was a holster and WW1 semi auto 7.65 mm "Arzanza" (unsure of spelling) Italian or Spanish? unfortunately it and another real trophy, a Walther PPK also in a holster were stolen from our house in Ottawa back in the 80s.

I have to make a correction to my first comment, the belt, holster and gun were brought back by my great-grandfather SJT Jack Backhouse, CFA farrier sargent WW1. The Walther PPK was a WW2 trophy, both were 7.65mm and unfortunately both were stolen.
