Is this a MKVI bag before me.....?

Post by ob1al »

I just saw this bag on eBay - I am not intending to bid, but I was wondering if it is a MKVI? I understand they are very similar.

It doesn't look like a MKVII to my (untrained) eye because of the popper on the inside pocket.

Could be wrong - but my WPG bag doesn't have an inside popper.

Instead of the disk it might have the spring featured in bag 2 below:

I really like that flapped pocket with a press stud, very functional!
Oh yeah, it is a Mk VII for sure.

Yup MK VII, the easiest way to tell a MK IV is the d rings on the front of the bag....

Definitely a MK VII, I recognized the snaps on it immediatly, and the MK VI doesn't have that really small pocket. -IJ
