Just out of curiousity, what is the LATEST date any of you have encountered on a D - Ring pack ?

 

For me, I've only handled one 1943. Pretty sure it was Boyt mfg'd. - This was many years ago now, before much significance was attached to that particular feature. Sold it in a catalog . . . pre-internet days, '86 - '88 or so.

 

Best regards,

Paul

Mines washed out, so the date is gone. It's an early depot made pack, though. And Paul, it's good to see you here on the forum! Robin

That's interesting.....I would have sworn that Boyt never made a "D" ring haversack. The early contract Boyt packs I've seen with early style markings "BoyT 42" markings have the "M" buckles.

 

The only one I own with legible dates is marked "DQP 1941 1042"
