Hi guys, this is just a quick question.
Outside of mag limited games i'm struggling to carry my extra mp40 mags, so they are easily accessed.
Are there any other pouches that i could, i have seen 6 mag pouches, but i understand these were used by FJ's. I need a solution to use with an infantry uniform, as even if i'm not at a ww2 specific game i want to look right.
Thanks in advance DW
As a quick aside, up till when were bakelite mp38/40's used till?
Mp40 were used all the way through the war from their introduction.
The bakelite was a feature of all MP40 construction. There were colour variations in the bakelite. These variations were not a separate model, just a quirk of production.
The same thing can be seen with P38 grips especially.
Try using your gasmask can or breadbag for mags?
There was a strap for the breadbag so it could be slung over the shoulder. Ideal for your Panzer look?

I use 11 mags in total, 6 in my pouches , one ready in hand and the other 4 in my gas mask tin, I use the large size bubble wrap so they dont rattle round 
other option is to carry 2 extra mag pouches high on your chest, (tape them to the front of your y straps) not 100% accuarate , but accessible

Not even 5% accurate but it is a solution I guess.

Or you could store extra mags in grenade pouches, this way you are still looking historically correct
Edit. Correct term is grenade bags, sorry.
That sounds like a good idea, any links?
Also thanks for the mp40 info, obviously i reaslise mp40's were seen throughout the war, but i thought the all black look was a later war feature, as most images you seem to depict all black, but if it was just a quirk of production so much the better.
Cheers DW
RAU is probably your best bet. Steiner has a nice set from him. SOF do grenade pouches but despite their description they are Rifle Grenade pouches and NOT Stick Grenade pouches! they are also a bit naff and have nasty bright blue coloured straps!

So don’t think I marched there for this reason – it could carry another name – but because there is a very important goal... this goal I wanted to take – and you know – we are very modest, we have it already."

It is on your perseverance, staunchness, fighting skill and readiness to discharge your duty to the country that the defeat of the German-fascist army and the liberation of the Soviet land from the Hitlerite invaders depend! We can and must clear the Soviet land of Hitlerite vermin."

Yes, Boshman is right. They don't appear on his website, but just phone him - Richard is very friendly and approachable. Mine are just made from hessian, like the originals. They were often made from sandbags.
You've got nothing to ein, zwei, drei, vier

I think he is located in Canada but I'm sure there must be someone in the UK selling them or ones like them.
Well if you have any MP44 magazine pouches lying around, you can fit two MP40 magazines side by side in one MP44 magazine slot on those.
So if you use 2 MP44 magazine pouches on either side, you can carry 12 MP40 magazines in total.
Granted they are a little more cumbersome than the smaller MP40 pouches, but if you worry about losing things like magazines and gun gas out of your bread bag a lot of the time like I do, then it might be worth thinking about and it doesnt look that strange.

just buy a map case for your belt . It's completely viably for NCO's & officers, and you will find that you can easily carry 6 mags in there, leaving you three in the right hand pouch set , one in your weapon . thats 10 mags or 500 rounds FFS ....and you haven't started on the gas mask yet.
like the idea about the mp44 pouches
need to order some soon anyways
