    Looks like a WW1 or 2 haversack.

      That is a Chauchat magazine bag.

        Repro chauchat bag. Not quite the same? Variations? I thought the strap in the Ebay bag looked a little light for an ammunition bag.... Note this fellow won't sell to Germans? is it some kind of German bag? Or does he just not like Germans? :-)

          NO GERMAN BIDDERS EXCEPTED

          According to that, Germans just have to do the same things everybody else does.

            Spelling, what a concept. :-) I went by what I think he meant, not what he spelled.

              The French Russians, and US each made dozens of variations of this bag.
