War time dated P-37 waist belt and patrol pouches

[Jerry B]

Getting harder to get a good p37 waist belt, especially if wartime dated. I have to get one, one of these days to replace those I got rid of about 15 years back, doh! And all the straps and pouches and the tank pattern holster double doh!!

Looks a good set mate.

Wow, you guys make it sound like it's impossible to find a nice P37 belt. They cost about a tenner at local flea markets here!

While I haven't gotten any webbing in the past 6 months, you can still find all the webbing you want if you're patient. Picked this up for ~30 quid in May?

Canadian C-Broad arrow marked war time dated are not so easy to find here localy I purchase every one I find if they are a decent price and in good condition.
By the way nice find for ten quid.

Hi Rene I have been watching a nice war time dated C-broad arrow marked Canadian waist belt,Bren pouches and equipment braces on E-bay for the last week they sold yesterday morning for the staggering price of $256.00 Cdn .
When you consider the price of these items if you were to buy them separate the braces and the bren pouches do not demand a very high price in the market place it makes the waist belt a very expensive item indeed so IMO if you have a few of these kicking around you are sitting on a little gold mine.

Jeezus Mark K, I'll be keeping my sets for awhile, thanks for the heads up Mate

It is like money in the bank Rene.

Upon further inspection of the ammo pouches I found they were faintly broad arrow marked and dated 1944 as well.

Sadly I have tried to search for information on J.W.BLINN-F40660 through the London Gazette and Ancestry.co.uk and have hit a brick wall so far.
