Fun with M56 Ammo pouch

[GTR003121]

Hi All, had an M56 ammo pouch come in today and I put a couple M61's on it for fun. Looked pretty sweet so I thought I'd share a pic with you guys.

I would leave it as is, it is a very good display.

Great pic Justin.
that doesnt look like a very secure way of attaching the grens! is the top loop velcro or just pushed over the fuze?

Thank you Paul and Miguel! I was looking forward to seeing how grenades were supposed to mount on this type of pouch myself. As it turns out there are thick cloth sleeves on the rear at either side that the spoons slip into all the way up to the jungle clips. Then the small straps wrap around the fuze heads and attach to the spoon sleeves via pull snaps. Without the spoon sleeves, the straps wouldn't hold the grenades in place for long at all!
