German World War II Fallschirmjaeger bandolier for the K98 rifle, designed to carry 100 rounds of 8mm ammunition. Bandolier is unmarked, which is normal for these early war (1940-1941) blue examples. Several shades of blue cotton fabric were used in its construction, and the 20 flaps and 2 belt support attachment straps are secured by texxtbook "Prym 6" marked snap assemblies. Bandolier has light wear, with light to moderate soiling from being used (perhaps by a postwar shooter), there is a 1/4" hole, and each inner flap has rust stains from steel 5-round stripper clips which were inserted. CONDITION: Overall very good to excellent. WEZ
