    Interesting piece of web gear

    I have had this for years and just can not remember what it is for/or what it holds ?

    Note there is a belt hook in back - it may have something to do with vehicles ? any
    help in identification would be appreciated. RobertAttachment 24790Attachment 24791Attachment 24792Attachment 24793

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Looks like the equipment bag for the PRC 77 radio set. I don't know what the US troops called that radio. It was in the early 70's. I think that's the set up on the back. I'm sure that's what the front looked like. The long pouch held the tape antennae and ten foot whip and insulator and goose neck. The little pouch held the ear cup and hand set.
    Regards, Jim

    I just did a Google with the writing on the bag and came up with this.

    Ours was the 25 set. I had forgotten that but it was on the same page as the 10. We changed the name to the 77 set somewhere along the line. I think we also adopted the ALICE clips for attatchment too.
    Regards, Jim
