As the title says, on my pouches I've got a small pouch on the LHside set which looks like it might have been used for tools or sommit .
Does anyone know what it was for? , as it may get removed as just annoying.
Also looking at the pics I see a lot of Germans in WWII wearing only the RHside set of three, not both . Anyone got any info on this ?
Cheers all

Hi,
the small pouch is for the realsteel mag loader tool - I have removed it from my set of pouches since i have no need for it
Sounds like a vote for the knife then !
Bah! Slackers! You should get a mag loader tool and put it in the flappy bit!
ah the typical reeanctor appraoch , ooh an excuse ot spend yet more money on an authentic bit I don't really need.
Ok anyone got a mag loader for sale ?
Will it fit anything useful?
speedloader, roll of tape, whistle?
"I think we are in rats' alley - Where the dead men lost their bones."
or in my case gumshield... in the compass pouch...
Though I've just bought a compass (modern unfortunately) for use at churchill's... should I get lost!
speedloader fits (just) i also use mine for the bfg reloader tool and spare 9mm cartridges, tracker bar also fits for that mid-assault snack, medic bandage, yes and even a non authentic multitool....

I think you'll find that I'll be deciding what is on that list... lol! Well I'll have input on it anyway! 
John... looks like some idiot moderator (I suspect Oldsweat ) has managed to bugger up this thread...
The compass discussion and some other bits which he didn't mean to copy I'm sure! have for some reason been moved to the For Sale section...
Right... just moved it back here... no need for it to be in the for sale section... syd already had a thread there anyway!
Idiot moderator??? - pah
This was my thread about a flappy bit on my pouches that was hijacked with some discussion about bloody compasses, ending up in another set of sales from Syd ( buy one compass get free brown mug no doubt ? )
I don't mind , but thought the compass stuff belonged in sales but hey ho as you all like . 
Free free to discuss anything you like ........ I had Pizza for tea washed down with a glass of vintage prune juice ....
Hey, I didnt intenionally hijack it, I was givving pointers to sombody that mentioned compasses(Blame Yith) and NO you wont get a free mug, they are mine, all mine I tell you.
If it makes you feel better I have a Nice little ogdones navy cut tobako tin that fits in mine a treat, since I dont have a use for it since I stopped smoking (again)do you want it?
I'm only kidding around , I'm the worst offender when it comes to going off topic
Thanks for the offer, but the flappy bit has now gone and become and Esbit cooker pouch/cover in my mess tins
Its a conspiracy, I need to clear all smoking related parafinalia out of my house or Ill get a new excuse to start again.
GOING BACK THE SECOND HALF OF THE ORIG QUESTION
THE REASON WHY SOME TROOPS HAVE ONLY ONE SET OF POUCHES IS THAT THEY WOULD BE SQUAD LEADERS LOOK AT MY AVATAR.
