History

Description

Introduced with the Binocular case, as its sequential code reveals, this was little different to the Pockets of earlier Patterns, though its box-lid flap was closed by a turn button. It was intended for the Compass, magnetic, marching, Mark 1. Only a single “C” hook was fitted, together with a transverse webbing loop, on the upper rear face, for carriage on a yoke strap.

British Army 1958 Pattern Northern Ireland Rifle Butt Pouch

SCARCE UNISSUED BRITISH ARMY

1958 PATTERN NORTHERN IRELAND
RIFLE BUTT POUCH

NSN : 8465-99-135-7280 - Socket Rifle Support (Pattern 58)

The butt pouch is made from heavy duty green canvas. It has two metal hook on the back from attachment to the 58 Pattern webbing belt. It is stamped on the inside with the makers name and date – “M.W.&S 1972”. (I have tried to photograph the markings but it is difficult with them on the inside of the pouch).


These pouches where issued in Northern Ireland for use at checkpoints and static duties where soldiers had to stand over long periods ~ hence the “Northern Ireland issue butt pouch” name. The idea was that the pouch was worn on the right side of the body with the butt of the SLR rifle placed inside. (SEE LAST PICTURE). The soldier was then able to hold the rifle by the pistol grip with the rifle at port leaving one hand free to check documents at checkpoints etc. but with the rifle in his right hand always ready for immediate use.

British Army 58 Pattern Binocular Pouch

CASE, BINOCULAR
NSN : 1240-99-973-6959

Not present in the 1959 LoC, or Fitting Instructions, the edition of 1965 lists and depicts (rather than illustrates!) additional “officer-type” additions to the Pattern. The 7 x 30 Binocular, prismatic, No. 2 was still a standard issue, so an un-stiffened, padded Case was designed. It was of rectangular cross-section, with none of the curves of the Patt. ’37 and ’44 designs and topped by a box-lid flap, closed by a turn button. The rear face had a pair of “C” hooks for attachment to the Belt, with a small webbing loop on the upper rear face, so that the Case could be threaded on the front straps of the Yoke, above an Ammunition pouch.
