I`ve seen the Swedish ones being used at WW2 events. You can compare them to the real things here http://www.mp44.nl/equipment/field_bottle.htm
Hope this helps :)

Hello, it will take a german metal cup, but the screw cap is too big for the phenol plastic type cup.

Just had a look at that MP44 site, fantastic! one small point, the A frame bag should be buttoned onto the A frame itself, I'll show what I mean in one of my equipment posts, very nice collection of water bottles that guy has.
