Ronnie Posted April 5, 2016 Share #128 Posted April 5, 2016 Thanks Jerry. I saw this thread and thought it fit better here so that is why I posted here. Some really nice stuff here. I really like the modified gear. Thanks. Ronnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northcoastaero Posted April 6, 2016 Share #129 Posted April 6, 2016 I saw in person at one time an M-426A flight suit with a pen/pencil pocket modified to the upper sleeve. The material appeared to be of the stiff gray type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerry_k Posted April 6, 2016 Share #130 Posted April 6, 2016 Hi North. It make sense! Late war type flight suit (nylon and cloth version M668) have a factory made pencil sleeve pocket. You should make a photo of it. cheers, Jerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerry_k Posted March 19, 2018 Share #137 Posted March 19, 2018 Holster is interesting. It looks like .45 M3 holster but adapted to used with .38. Also a ammo loops have a .38 special bullets vs .45. I hope a new owner of this set show us how the .38 fit into holster right now. I noticed a .38 M3 holster with .45 also. It could be a tight fit for sure.
