Very nice Luke, I would have thought it would be a late war creation due to the Carr Aust snaps? Like found on the large pouches.

Mate, that is quite interesting. Do you have pictures of the markings? I know the yokes exist but they are usually dated earlier. Yet to ever see a pair of utility pouches!

No, I believe it predates the first runs of web pouches by Ruskin and Grosby in the latter part of 1942.
A mate has a pair of the canvas braces to the set still with stamps intact dated 1942. I am not sure how many components were manufactured though as we only know of the braces and basic pouches at present but hopefully I will eventually find more information in the archives if it exists.
