WW2 03 Pattern Leather 50-Round Bandolier South African Issue

A wonderful condition WW2 South African-made 03 pattern bandolier.

The 50-round bandolier bears the name of the Capetown manufacturer 'Fraser & Son Ltd' along with a Union of South Africa broad arrow mark.

South Africa was the last of the Commonwealth countries to produce the 03 pattern bandolier with production ending during the mid-war period (approx. 1942), these are often seen in period photographs being worn by S.African troops fighting in the Western Desert against Axis forces (Afrika Korps & Italian troops).

A really clean example considering its age with only light service/storage wear, no date found but 100% wartime issue.

Please study the images in regards to condition.
