early magazines

[RCS]

Early waffle 20 round magazines in pouch, I have also seen the four magazine pouch too

I kept one of mine as a souvenir from 68 and my vest made from a half shelter. It has pouches to hold 20 mags, 1 box C Rats, pockets to hold a few M79 gernades and a pocket for 40 rounds on stripper clips. It didn't keep you dry by any means.

Thanks for the picture RCS.

Some additional photos of the variations of markings on the early magazines, I believe the small CAL..223 is early as I found it on a three digit Colt SP1 Sporter. The 30 rd magazine is early for both the AR-15 or AR-18/180
