This German MG 13 light machine gun magazine carrier is made from heavy tan canvas with brown leather reinforcement, stitched edging, metal fittings, and leather closure straps. A central carrying handle is sewn along the upper edge. Four steel box magazines are included, each marked "bsw" and dated 1938. The carrier was originally designed to accommodate eight magazines, four on each side. Condition reflects extensive age and field use, with scattered staining, surface abrasions, fraying, and a torn area near the lower center of the canvas. The leather exhibits creasing, scuffing, finish loss, and age-related patina, while the attached loops, straps, rivets, and fittings remain present. The magazines show expected finish wear and oxidation. Measures approximately 17 inches wide x 4.5 inches high. An appealing early German machine-gun equipment set retaining four period-marked magazines and substantial historical character. SC
