Up for your consideration is a replica WWI BANDOLEER REPACK KIT FOR THE WWI M1903 and M1917 SERVICE RIFLES, consisting of an authentic replica of the M1906 bandoleer with printed lot number, six cardboard pocket boxes to hold 12 5-round stripper clips, 2 different ammunition lot reference cards, and black safety pin.
The primary small arms rifle ammunition used by the U.S. during WWI was the .30-caliber M1906 round produced for the M1903 and M1917 service rifles, and for most of the machine guns then in use. The ammunition came packaged in 20-round boxes for the machine guns, and M1906-pattern cloth bandoleers for the rifles. The bandoleer provided a means of carrying ammunition in an easily accessible manner. It was made of heavy cotton cloth, had 6 pockets, and a shoulder strap of webbing with a safety pin to help adjust its length. A protective cardboard pocket box was used in the bandoleer pockets to prevent tearing of the bandoleer fabric by the bullet tips, and a cardboard card containing the type of ammunition, lot number, andmanufacturer, was placed in one of the pockets to meet Ordnance regulations. The lot number was usually printed on the bandoleer as well.

Check my response and buy with confidence.I prefer paypal, and shipping is free within the U.S. I will ship internationally, but there will be extra shipping charges involved. Those extra charges MUST be paid by the buyer, and will be added by during the checkout process. I will combine shipping for multiple items if requested.
