WW2 Canadian Army P37 Small Basic Pouches C Broad Arrowed Pair

The WW2 Canadian Army P37 Small Basic Pouches C Broad Arrowed Pair consists of two standard issue webbing pouches produced as part of the Pattern 1937 (P37) equipment set. These pouches were commonly used by Canadian soldiers during the Second World War for carrying ammunition and other small items. Constructed from durable khaki-colored cotton webbing, each pouch features a top flap secured by a brass press stud and fixed belt loops designed to attach to the P37 waistbelt. The reverse of each pouch is clearly stamped with the “C” Broad Arrow, an official Canadian government ordnance mark indicating military issue. These pouches were intended for use with the Lee-Enfield rifle, typically accommodating two three-pocket Bren gun magazines or six stripper clips. The design reflects British military specifications with minor adaptations for Canadian service. This paired set offers insight into the standard field gear issued to Canadian forces during the Second World War.
