Thanks for the compliment, the pouch is in well used but original/honest condition. Your finds are even greater because you found them your self and didn’t have to pay for them, that’s why I like the Luftwaffe gasmask canister perhaps “more” then the flare pouch because I found it me self on a flee market and only paid 2 euros for it, the rubber strap was on it and it seems that it belongs to it due to the fact that it has bin on the canister for a very long time, its perhaps nothing special but I like honest used stuff like this canister.
