Rare 7 Pocket Carbine Bando and 700 Rd Can Spotted

[painter777]

Fellow Member USGI BOB followed the sale of what must be a 'Ultra Rare' 7 pocket Bandoleer.
It was 5 Bandoleers in total all with 7 pockets. Each pocket filled with 2 stripper clips with 10 rds on each. A total of 140 LC 72 Rds per Bandoleer. Total Rds was 700 as shown on the Ammo box.

According to the Description: "The ammunition will be shipped in the .50 Cal Ammo Can shown in the first photo, which is the original GI can that the carbine ammo was distributed in."

I've attached pictures of the 7 Pocket Bandoleer and the Original can.
Not having a example of either in my collection I started right away searching for the same to add to mine. Best I could come across was a Bandoleer example Linked below from Ebay:

Vietnam Era Cloth Bandolier for 5.56mm M193 7-Pocket Dated Early to Mid 1970s | eBay

For the 'Winner' of the GB Auction his cost for 700 rds of LC 72 will be about ~ .83 Cents per Rd. Link: https://www.gunbroker.com/Item/1081268550
