Help please: sandtrooper ammo pouch dimensions?

[pandatrooper[TK]]

This will be more of an experiment, but could anyone please measure their Stolla Wein MP 40 pouches - or in a perfect world, what they think the dimensions of the screen used pouches were? I know a few people have made their own replicas, so any measurements would help.

 

I'm looking specifically for the length of the pouch (from bottom to inner lip) and the width of the pouches, depth wouldn't hurt either. The rest I can figure out with reference images.

 

I might try and take a stab at making one for myself, just to see if I can do it.

 

Thanks for your help!

 

*BTW: yes, I have already posted this on MEPD. No replies yet.

Mine aren't "the best, most accurate money can buy" but IMO they're definitely good enough to be acceptable as a 501st sandtrooper, and I plan on using them for my HWT EIB submittal:

 

length of rectangular backing: 23cm

width of rectagular backing: 14cm

 

length of pouch (1 of 3): 19.5cm

width of pouch: (1 of 3): 4.5cm

depth of pouch: (1 of 3): 3cm

 

You can see photos of them here: -------

Hey Panda,

This is the info I got from a friend who collects military stuff... I did not personally measure the pouch, these are the dimensions he gave me, so don't hold my feet to the fire...Hope it helps
