[zipedit]welcome!1950s Italian Mess Kit, Model 1954, M54, Gavetta Italiano Modelo 1954, Mess Kit✪ Italian Mess Kit, Model 1954, M54, Gavetta Italiano Modelo 1954, Mess Kit ✪This newest find is an early, Post-War, Never Issued, New From Warehouse Italian Military mess kit.Brutal lessons of WWII struck hard and stuck. The notion that there'd always be a mess kitchen to feed the troops was scrapped!Future troopers had to be able to forage for food and cook it themselves! The mess kit had to be able to take punishment and make meals on the go. They did it. They came up with what many consider the best system ever. Period! It was modeled along the lines of the German field mess kit, but with improvements.One improvement that makes this kit the BOSS is being strong enough to park a Jeep on! Super durable, it is made to shrug off MASSIVE abuse without leaking, melting, cracking or anything else!The M54 kit is constructed of heavy aluminum, with a galvanized steel pot bail and pan handles.The two smaller pans have the handles attached to opposite sides. So when the pans are installed over the main pot, the handles fold down and snap over a studs on the pan. This locks the three pieces in place.The bail on the main pot folds down and snaps under the small pan. This makes a very secure and compact package. It is a unique, silent and ingenious design.Model 1954 kits do not need straps. They were made to be carried inside the rucksack or bread bag.Here in the U.S., these original Italian mess kits are almost never encountered. We simply can't get them. I was stoked when I had the chance to grab some up and offer them to my customers. With these great baby's, if you don't grab them when you see them, you won't see them again! These are in fantastic condition. They have been stored since they were made! They show signs of warehousing, but they have never been used! If into that, they can be furbished up to shine. Me, I like 'em just the way they look. Real.Take a good look at this unique kit. Really examine and compare this amazing kit to anything else out there.Includes 1 pot and 2 pans that all nest together for no-hassle transport.Kit Includes pot with steel pail handle and 2 fry pan / eating dishes with fold-out steel handles. Durable thick aluminum evenly conducts heat for primo results.This mess kit set lets you fry, boil, bake, stew, and more. Designed for cooking, serving or and eating out of. Chow down!Key Specs :Fitted together This 3-Pc.
