Within the last few days (maybe in response to the fieldcraft expansion) I’ve decided to go a bit 21st Century, and begin investing in some MTP webbing.
The last PLCE webbing I had on personal issue was OG (which helps to show my age…but nomatter).
Along with a new khaki/‘MTP brown’ (possibly coyote-coloured) belt and a single small conventional MTP pouch, the supplying company appears to have given me a curious tiny pouch, also “coyote brown”…free of charge.
It is a weird thing, the size and general shape of a baby’s bootee, but flat/ 2D, almost like a mini Santa sock.
It’s made from hard-wearing nylon, with edge seam-tapes stitched on it, and two velcro squares (both loop, not hook), a tiny zip closure, and a para-cord puller.
Has me very puzzled…maybe a coin purse? Or an ID tags holder?
It came in a clear plastic wrapper with a QR code and part number (nb I don’t think it’s an issue item…no NATO stock number and not quite the quality).
Once I make some more space in my phone memory, I shall try posting a picture. But one of you webbing experts will know what the blazes it is, surely (mind you, it’s only ‘webbing’ in the sense that it’s made of webbing-grade material, and been sent alongside actual webbing).
Ideas please (no priority whatsover…just a bit of a mystery)
(apparently the system won’t let me post in all caps - it thinks it’s “unclear”. Ahh… This line of normal text has fixed it, but it rather spoils my joke.)
