The web straps is probably post war addition, strange, but there a lot of web Y straps in Estonia...

It was my grandfather,s backpack..He was on army at Tallinn in 1944.
IMO those web straps are original.

I don't say that they are a copy, just a lot of backpacks was used after the war by scholars and due of that the support belts for ammopouches which was useful for the soldiers equipment, was cut as unnecessary for civil use.
Usually soldiers use the Y-starps and there was special hooks for backpack, for fast attaching it to the Y-straps. The Y-straps is more useful combat equipment then backpack, which was a practically unused on the trenchlines
