Is anyone after original 08 pattern ammo pouches? If interested, I know someone selling pairs (post-WW1 dated but in good condition) for £250 a pair - get in touch if interested

Hi Dave
I visited Silverman's at the begining of this year in response to the advertisement you have mentioned - Sadly the pouches were some of the worst I have ever seen and there wasn't a half decent set amongst them - At the time Mr Silverman did refer to the possibility of some more being available - I left my details with him - followed it up by phone on a monthly basis but I haven't heard a thing from him - It was really disappointing - That said have ended up with a repro set of from Schipperfabrik which I am really pleased with.

Hi Peter. Your response says it all really. You know what they say about something if it looks too good to be true.....? I must admit I was quite taken aback to see them advertised at all, and have since been told they've had them on their books for some years; which I find very surprising - I seem to recall contacting them way back in the 1970's to see if they had any, only to be politly told: 'I'd be lucky'!
