Rifle Ammunition Pouch, circa early 1920s.

In khaki canvas, 8 " x 5"(closed) or 8 ¾"(open). There are two factory or unit inventory stamps on the inside. The pouch still has its original canvas closure strap. The metal button which is probably also original to the pouch shows the factory markings in Russian and what appears to be Georgian language as well as the Hammer and Sickle emblem in a characteristically early style.

In khaki canvas, 8 " x 5"(closed) or 8 ¾"(open). There are two factory or unit inventory stamps on the inside. The pouch still has its original canvas closure strap. The metal button which is probably also original to the pouch shows the factory markings in Russian and what appears to be Georgian language as well as the Hammer and Sickle emblem in a characteristically early style.

In fair to good overall condition. The canvas is sound and free of tears or significant scuffs. There is a very minor amount of soiling to the exterior. A part of the shoulder strap is missing, while the remaining 7.5" part with the buckle is curled and now looks like a cord; it would probably flatten out again if very carefully ironed. The simple steel buckle is rusted but still functional.

This ammo pouch was probably produced in the Soviet-controlled part of Georgia in the early 1920s and is likely a survivor of the Russian Civil War. A remarkable and scarce piece!
