TD1043 Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 What type of pouch do you use to carry your everyday items? I'm trying to find a good pouch to wear on my belt, that can carry the following things... - car keys - Blackberry cell phone - wallet What do you use to carry these things? I don't wear my backpack all the time, so I need to have something like a pouch to carry those items when I'm trooping. Any suggestions and photos are welcome! Thanks!

avatar_man Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 I personally use a travel wallet... I just band it around my waist and keep it tucked under, I also have an additional leather belt pouch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD 551 Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 I picked up a WWII French issued leather ammo pouch that fits my voice amp and also my wallet and keys. The pouch is already naturally weathered which is a plus. Picked it up from TK409 - he sells them sometimes on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 8733911838 Hope this helps.

TD-352 Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 I jus picked up one of these: http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/WIN116-798-1377.html It has the look of something a sandtrooper would wear. Has alot of space and has a large loop in the back that your belt will fit through. (once you remove a small amount of stitchimg.) And for a whopping $2. **** ya can't beat that.

That looks great, but how many sandtroopers wear canvas pouches? I honestly could care less if it's leather or canvas, but I don't want to get slack from others in the 501st saying it's not "canon." How hard would it be to dye one of these black, and what would you use to do that? When you get it, could you take a picture of it on you when you're wearing your armor? I need to see how this looks when trooping. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD-352 Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Yes I am thinking about dying it black. Gonna get some fabric dye and give it a shot. It will be awhile till my next trooping outing, but I will get pics when I can. I am also thinking about sewing a MEPD patch on it. And as far as someone giving you flak about not being canon........any time someone starts that crap with me I end the discussion with one question: "Was your costume screen used?" ( As I start inspecting their costume.) They tend to shut up at that point......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maj_hassel Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 I have seen a few Swedish M39 ammo pouches of late. I refurbished one for myself and just recently found and dyed one for irob972. They originally come in a tan color but can easily be dyed black. As I was in the middle of writing this post I found a similar one on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/US-Ammo-Bag-Pouch-Carl...ViewItem#ebayph otohosting://http://cgi.ebay.com/US-Ammo-Bag-Pou...ayph otohosting Check this link to see how I modified Mine: http://home.earthlink.net/~tk7708/New%20Pouch/ The best thing to do is just type "ammo pouch" in the search box on eBay. You'll see that they come in all shapes and sizes, just find one that suits you. I'd stick with leather as opposed to canvas--for authenticity's sake. I hope this helps. Good luck on your hunt!!

Cool. I noticed you have a flask in there? You on the sauce while patrolling? lol "I'm TD-7708.. Oh a TD? So you're a Sandtrooper? What? Oh no, son. That just means I'm Too Drunk cuz I've taken 7,708 drinks since I signed up." *Drumroll* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
