True Vintage: WWII era German Ammo strap for BR01

(Click on any photo to enlarge)

Hi strap lovers. Here’s a new one from Dangerous9strap!! I’ve been hanging on to this WWII era German Ammo pouch for a while not really pushing it’s availability, as I’ve been kept pretty busy build my other Exotic skin, Leather and Swiss Ammo straps. But, I was recently contacted by a couple of different customers about building straps from Germany Ammo pouches that have been hanging around my Ammo pouch stock for a while -these are made from a really great pebble vegetable tanned leather. So David was first up, so he’s getting him strap for his BR01 shipped to him now. He wanted minimal stitching, but wanted it a couple of accent stitching and it the dark pewter grey (which I custom dyed for him starting with my slate grey 4-ply waxed Irish thread and dyeing it to just the right color – try asking any other strap maker for that service and see where it gets you!!) Anyway, I think you’ll agree that it turned out looking awesome and I think is going to be a great strap when paired up with this BR01. Thanks David for the great strap design, which will forever be known here at Dangerous9straps as “David style”. If you’ve got an idea for a strap that you’d like me to build, please let me know of if you want a strap like the one pictured, as for a German Ammo strap “David style”
