Johan Willaert Posted September 16, 2013 Share #3 Posted September 16, 2013 I have one of those and have seen several others, always dated 1945... Original variation I would say... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted September 17, 2013 Share #4 Posted September 17, 2013 I think it is just a variation in production method, possibly to explore a cheaper or faster method of production than woven cotton webbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Marine Posted September 17, 2013 Share #5 Posted September 17, 2013 Big Al is right, it's just a variation. For what it's worth, that type of strap stays on your shoulder better and is more comfortable than the webb type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
