Stinch's Militaria Collection

WWII German M1911 K98 Pouch Manufacturers (PR)

This list is by no means nor will it ever be completed. Sources listed as starting with a number string are from my personal collection. As I find various manufacturers of K98 pouches, I'll post them here. If you have one that you would like put on the list or if you see any errors, please contact me. Images below are copyright by their respective owners. I make every attempt to contact the owners but it is not always possible. Images and information here are for research only and is meant to help the militaria collecting community. "KM" in the comments/description column indicates Kriegsmarine (Navy). Manufacturer names shown in bold are listed exactly as the text case (UPPER/lower) was stamped on the pouch. Manufacturers that are listed in lower case have not been verified by a clear photo image or in person. There are currently 24 manufacturer marks and 38 images listed on this page. The latest image on this page is "REINHOLD ADAM OBERURSEL (TAUNUS) 1937 ".
