Wow, http://www.lawranceordnance.com/ is who I ordered one of my Indy bags from years ago. If I remember correctly Lawrence Kasden owns that company...(he's the screenwriter to Raiders and ESB).

Nah

It's owned by Simon Lawrance. It's about a 10 minute walk from my office here

Ah, thanks! Someone (can't remember who) had told me that info in my early years at Indygear. Thanks for clearing that up.

Also, if you check out the Pattern 58 bag, you might just find a recognizable little detail:

Rob, That's the old style PLCE OG (Personal Load Carrying Equipment, Olive Green) gas mask bag, usually worn on the rear of your webbing belt with your other pouches rather then like we wear the MKVIIs.

The current issue is very similier, but is in DPM (Camouflage)

How's that for useless information?
Cheers,

Ian

Useless? I only wish there would have been more time of stuff like that at the summit.

I had a really good time when you told me about your service Ian, indeed.

Regards,
Swindy

Hey buddy!

Just glad I didn't bore you, not that there's alot to tell!

I was quite surprised when you and the other guys actually seemed to enjoy the biscuit browns and the pate!!!

A weekend certainly isn't long enough for a summit! Though I think me and Ken were getting a little tired of legging it up and down six flights of stairs a few times every day! And the cockroaches and rats we shared with!

How does the dividers look inside and how's the space? Is it similar to an MKVII?

I'll take some photos of the inside of my issued bag for you and I'll compare it with a couple of the inside of the older OG I have aswell.

Will take a couple of days, but I'm as good as my word!
