Continued their courageous stands at Monte Casino and after Italy capitulated, they continued with the Germans as the 4th Fallschirmjager Division which fought until May 1945. The entire time, they operated with this smart chest rig that held 5 Beretta M38 magazines on the front and 7 on the back along with 6 grenades on the waist pouches. This vest would still be viable in todays military operations if you inserted body armor plates or Kevlar! Very comfortable and a brilliant design! It is applicable and useful with numerous other sub machine gun magazine like Sten, Thompson, MP40 etc. Normally repro versions although rare as well, are priced at several hundred dollars for this version.
