WWI M1903 SPRINGFIELD AND M1917 ENFIELD RIFLE AUTHENTIC M1906 REPLICA BANDOLEER

Description

Up for your consideration is an authentic replica of a WWI M1906 BANDOLEER FOR THE WWI M1903 and M1917 SERVICE RIFLES, with printed lot number, ammunition lot reference card, and black safety pin.
The primary small arms rifle ammunition used by the U.S. during WWI was the .30-caliber M1906 round produced for the M1903 and M1917 service rifles, and for most of the machine guns then in use. The ammunition came packaged in 20-round boxes for the machine guns, and M1906-pattern cloth bandoleers for the rifles. The bandoleer provided a means of carrying ammunition in an easily accessible manner. It was made of heavy cotton cloth, had 6 pockets, and a shoulder strap of webbing with a safety pin to help adjust its length. A cardboard card containing the type of ammunition, lot number, and manufacturer, was placed in one of the pockets to meet Ordnance regulations. The lot number was usually printed on the bandoleer as well.
Each "Buy It Now" single purchase is for one empty bandoleer for the WWI M1903 and M1917 service rifles, and includes a lot data card and a black safety pin. No pocket boxes, stripper clips or .30 caliber rounds are included. I also have separate listings if you want a complete bandoleer repack kit (with pocket boxes) or just the pocket boxes (restoration kit).
Check my feedback and buy with confidence. I prefer paypal, and shipping is free within the U.S. I will ship internationally, but there will be extra shipping charges involved. Those extra charges MUST be paid by the buyer, and will be added by eBay during the checkout process. I will combine shipping for multiple items if requested. Payment is expected within 3 days of purchase. Returns are accepted within 14 days, but buyer must pay return shipping.
I also have separate "Buy It Now" listings for WWI Bandoleer Repack Kits, WWI Bandoleer Restoration Kits, M1 Carbine cartons (set "A" and "B"), M1911 .45 ACP cartons (50 round and 20 round), 12 GA
