Some are unissued, some have been issued but are in good nick, most looks in excellent condition. I would grab one whilst they still have them!

Sweet bag man! Looks good with the rest of your gear. How is the stitching on that thing? I hear the originals sometimes suffer from rot.

Btw Indy wears his bag on his left hip, if you are going for SA you need to switch the strap around and the bag too.

Thanks!
The stitching is in perfect condition, maybe I got chance! However, the material is a little stiff, probably quite normal, with age...

Absolutely true, very well observed Kt Templar!
I deliberately wear the bag on my right hip for a practical side (in car,etc...), and because I'm left-handed! ;)

Depending on when you made the purchase, Todd is also selling 'real deal' bags so the accuracy would be 100%.

Even his reproduction bags were very, very good.

Regardless, always nice to have a real MkVII in your collection. I've since retired mine to costuming and use a reproduction for everyday carry.
