Patriot Posted January 11, 2014 Share #6 Posted January 11, 2014 My first reaction is that this is a commercially made belt. The brass "wash" is coming off. GI belts use solid brass parts. I'd be interested to see what others have to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyCanteen Posted January 12, 2014 Share #7 Posted January 12, 2014 In my opinion, a commercial belt. None of the details add up, which makes this a non-issue belt. The buckles are patterned after the WWII alloy type, the keepers are of the M1956 Individual Equipment Belt type, the snap for the ammo pocket is too far over, and of course, the use of what appears to be steel fittings in lieu of brass.

kilgarvan Posted January 12, 2014 Author Share #8 Posted January 12, 2014 Thanks guys. That's what I was thinking as well. Was hoping otherwise but appreciate your help. I didn't pay anything for it so no money lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunbunnyB/3/75FA Posted January 14, 2014 Share #9 Posted January 14, 2014 i'd say that it's for one of the private military schools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Bummer Posted February 3, 2014 Share #10 Posted February 3, 2014 Looks like a tool belt, saw one sort of like it laying around a job sight the other day. same color buckles too. Or perhaps its a really bad fake. strange though, It looks like the effort was made to at least have the same layout. private military school would also be a good explanation. it'd be interesting to find out for sure.
