Stinch's Militaria Collection

WWII German M1911 K98 Pouch Manufacturers (STVW)

This list is by no means nor will it ever be completed. Sources listed as starting with a number string are from my personal collection. As I find various manufacturers of K98 pouches, I'll post them here. If you have one that you would like put on the list or if you see any errors, please contact me. Images below are copyright by their respective owners. I make every attempt to contact the owners but it is not always possible. Images and information here are for research only and is meant to help the militaria collecting community. "KM" in the comments/description column indicates Kriegsmarine (Navy). Manufacturer names shown in bold are listed exactly as the text case (UPPER/lower) was stamped on the pouch. Manufacturers that are listed in lower case have not been verified by a clear photo image or in person. There are currently 32 manufacturers listed here and 49 images. Latest image on this page is "SATTLER-LAGO SALZBURG1941".

Brown leather, LW unit marked inside middle lid "1937 HK" and strap "K.Gr. II/255 Leipheim". No dividers present. Unusual position of an inverted D-ring. Remains of glue that once likely held a soldiers name tag inside of middle lid.

1939

Ground dug from Narva Battlefield 1944, Estonia. Because of the units involved in the battle, it may have been used by volunteer Waffen-SS. Only readable characters are "ERG" in DEISSELBERG and "G" in "HAMBURG". Best guess that this is the correct maker name.
