    Webbing pouch ID, help, please?

    Is anyone able to I.D. these webbing pouches, with the 2 straps at the bottom, please? They are a little larger than a "standard" Uzi webbing pouch as can be seen in the last photo. The vendor thought that they may be Greek for Sten mags but I'm not so sure because they seem a little too short for that application.

    Many thanks for any replies and help.

    Those pouches have been causing confusion for years due to a UKicon dealer selling them as ‘Home Guard Thompson pouches’ back in the past. Off the top of my head I thought they were Danishicon Madsen SMG pouches, but after some googling I can’t find a reference. Over to the other forumites...

    I'd be thinking Sterling mags. Very much a WHAG though. Especially as Sterling mags are arced. Isn't a CF Sterling pouch though. Don't think it's Commonwealth either.
    "...dealer selling them as..." Lotta surplus dealers would think nothing of making up a story. There was a guy who came into the shop long ago who wanted a Mortuary kit. So the boss made him one. No idea what he used.
    Spelling and Grammar count!

    I did wonder about them being Israeli but there are no Israeli markings on them.

    I've tried Sten mags in it and they seem fractionally too long for the lid to close, without using brute force.
    I've tried 32 rnd Uzi mags and the pouch seems too deep for them.
