French Three Grenade Pouch

I bought this thing to make some custom belt pouches for shotgun shells to use on an ALICE pistol belt. The original old USGI shot shell pouches are hard to find and kinda pricey, and the newer reproduction ones look cheaply made, so I bought one of these to custom stitch my own. I'm going to cut them into 3 separate pouches, use to extra belt loop fabric on top to make loops on the backs for metal ALICE clips, then sew some elastic bands on the inside walls to hold 2X rows of six 12 gauge shells. The pouch I received was in very good shape, though it does have a small amount of crusty green verdigris on the brass snap fasteners. This should clean up with a little baking soda and a toothbrush though.

I got two just to be sure I have enough. I don't took them yet in the field, but I am happy with the look, quality and design. Most likely one will be a first aid pouch that will be permanent with my Alpine Italian rucksack. If you like the old vintage look and style equipment and something build for life. Then go ahead and buy this product, you will not feel sorry :)

I still haven't decided on a use for this as of yet but a 50 cents deal is a deal I couldn't pass up!

Got 3 for the price break. Ruger 10/22 clips [10 rd] fit perfectly plus 50 rd boxes of ammo. Also 9 mm. clips.

There are a lot of different uses for this pouch. I've been using mine for shooting, two pouches for ammunition and another for a cleaning kit. This also works well with holding small objects like screws or nails. The buttons are easy to open, but remain closed when you want them to. Mine was in excellent shape.

Each pocket can comfortably hold five stripper clips full of ammunition each. Fits on my belt great, and the leg tie helps enormously.

I actually got this pouch to go with my other military surplus gear, but since i got a few i use them for holding tools for my guns

using this as a tool belt and it looks very cool and vintage, great product for the money

These are meant to hang from the belt and feature a pair of leg ties. Each pouch is roughly the size of a soup can, so they appear to be designed around canister grenades (smoke, flashbang, etc) instead of the somewhat smaller frag grenades.

I like these. Rugged made, can be hung on a tool belt as a small parts and fitting pouch. Great if you work on ladders or in places you do not want to keep running back and forth to get another part while working.
