French MAT-49 Magazine Pouch

Each French MAT-49 magazine pouch is an authentic piece of French military surplus. You will be pleased to hear that each pouch is free from the typical rips, tears, stains and scents that are characteristic of previously issued military surplus equipment. Those looking for a magazine pouch suitable for carrying up to five submachine gun magazines – both those designed for use with the MAT-49 or otherwise – or a unique piece of French military surplus are sure to find the French MAT-49 magazine pouch an excellent option.

The French MAT-49 magazine pouch features a construction made almost entirely of a durable canvas material, save the few metal rivets and snap fasteners. Rounding out the tough construction is a series of military-grade stitching that holds the pouch together at the seams. Coloring is almost a sort of olive grey, which is a welcomed change from traditional olive drab. As for the pouch itself, these five-celled pouches are designed to hold up to five MAT-49 magazines, which are available in capacities of 20, 32 and 35 rounds. Each magazine fits into its own cell, which measures approximately 10 inches by 1 1/2 inches by 1 1/4 inches. Interesting is the fact that this pouch is also capable of accommodating .45-caliber submachine gun magazines, including our M3 Grease Gun magazine. Additional features include a flap closure with two snap fasteners, dual belt loops and a removable shoulder strap.
