TSMG 50rd drum pouches

[RCS]

These (originals) are not as common as they used to be, market is flooded with reproductions too. I think the RUSCO marked is pre WW2 as I have seen RUSCO that are WW2 dated, but not certain.

Also heard that some pouches were converted to hold 12 gage shotgun shells but have never seen one.

During WW2 some of these 50 rd drum pouches were manufactured in the UK and rare to find for the collector

Hard to find for sure. I never had one nor saw one for sale. I only know of one in captivity hereabouts...the last pic...

Millsco manufactured a canvas pouch for the 100 rd Colt drum but impossible to find - some repros are around. This was for the civilian
market as there was little military application except for the USMC during the 1920's
