I have found a seller with a 1972 dated Nylon Compass pouch, my question did the 1972 pouch have the plastic snap?

 

Thanks.

I don't think it does but gear was in such a whirlwind of modifications at that time it could be anything.

I agree with Craig

 

I looked through about a 100 of the compass/FA poches a couple weeks ago.All nice shape and dates rangeing from 1970-72 or 73.Some were hard to read as they were stamped lightly.Non had the nylon snaps but it could happen.

Usually only the m1967 MLCE compass pouch has the plastic snap.

I found many compass pouches with dates ranging from 1972-to 1975, theyall had the metal snap.

Anyway, I have two pouches with a smaller metal snap. Someone told me that they are a part of the LINCLOE gear, but I'm not sure about it.

I will post some pics later.
