I went online shopping for a NOS (new, old stock) Type I carbine magazine pouch to put on the stock of the Christmas Inland. Saw LOTS of repos in light Khaki for $15. One guy had a few NOS originals of different makes and varying shades for $29 delivered on EBAY. Got an unissued Froehlich & Sons 1943 dated in the "in between" shade. After surfing the web sights and surplus dealers, it seemed like a fair price. I found more NOS Type Is (real ones) than NOS Type IIs that were WW2 dated. I have one NOS Avery 1944 Type II and about 3 assorted used ones dated 1945. The rest are Korean war vintage.

Picked up a used "IS" oiler and VG used "D" tabbed sling for $18+$3 on Gunbroker. Didn't want a repro C tip and couldn't afford a real C tip. I could have bid on the one from the other post, but left it for the collectors.

Do those prices sound about right? Here's link to the pouch auction. ANyone see anything wrong with it?
