Schmidt Rubin ammo pouch questions

[hisnibs]

Anyone have one of these? Looking at the double pouch, looks like they'd hold 2 strippers clips of 5rds each. Thinking if dimensions are correct I can repurpose without alteration.

And, anyone know where to find them for a decent price? They seem to be popular for wrist watch bands. Hate to see gear prices go up just so they can be cut up like that.

TIA

Chargers hold 6 rounds.
What are you hoping to use it for?

Thanks for the vid. I was hoping each pocket would be able to hold 2 CZ 527m mags (7.62x39), as nobody makes pouches for these mags. I just copied these dimensions from another site as my mags are out of reach at the moment. If it's 6 rds on a clip then length or height should be fine, width would be the question.



Each magazine is 3 1/8 inch tall, (loaded), 2 3/4 inch long, and 1/2 inch wide, excluding floorplate, which is 11/16 inch wide.

Each pocket measures 3-3 1/8 tall x 3 3/16 wide x 1 5/16 deep.

Thanks! Just to confirm, those are interior dimensions?

Yes interior. This one is pretty stiff.

Fantastic, thanks very much for the info! Do you happen to know any vendors that might have them in stock? Ebay prices range from ehn to EEK!

I looked at eBay, thanks. Prices showing $35USD to $195USD. Safe for me to assume then that $60CDN is the going rate for these?

I use the WW2 ones for holding Lee Enfield mags. They work great. Got mine though when they were a whole lot cheaper. Damn everything is going up like crazy if it has the Swiss marks.

Is there that much variance in manufacture or is one a newer model of same pouch?

Many sub contractors for Swiss army leather goods. Mostly small shops all over the country.

If you don't need original, maybe check with a buddy of mine in the states for ones he makes:

Expect to wait.

Thanks for the info, seems like the right piece of kit for any number of things.
