Late war MP44 ammunition pouch marked KKD 1944

Typical second model MKB42/MP44 magazine pouch in obviously combat worn condition. One of the first types of ammunition pouch to be produced for the MP44 constructed fully out of recycled materials. The leather and canvas on the pouch was recycled showing many old stitch holes. These pouches where worn by members of the Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS and a nice example where the troops at the famous Poteau ambush which wears exactly this type of pouch. The pouch is in used condition and has one of the side covers missing and a elongated rip in the material what looks like a shrapnel damage. The pouch is maker marked KKD 1944 and would make a great addition to a combat mannequin!
