Where can I get JUST the MK VII?

Post by Cooler King »

After a hard search in surplus stores yesterday, I couldn't find one MK-VII gas mask bag, so I looked on eBay and the only one they have is a WPG and the MK-VI. I was wondering if there is any place online that sells just the bag. I've looked around and couldn't find anything and I was wondering if there's something I've missed, or am I better off just buying one ready made?

Thanks,
~Aaron

Well sources for these bags can be spotty. But I have had good luck with :
- Sentimental Journey @ http://www.sentimental-journey.co.uk/
- Roadster Factory @ http://www.the-roadster-factory.com/
- Lawrance Ordnance @ http://www.lawranceordnance.com/index.html

I have bought all from the above and they are reputable people. Surely between the above 3 and Noel Howard (MBA) you can find yourself a MKVII. Of course Noel's come pre-made with the strap. The others, you have to buy or make your own strap.

Happy Hunting and tell us how you do.

I have purchased from Sentimental Journey as well. Extremely good customer service, and prompt in shipping from the UK to the US (at least in the times I've dealt with them). Happy hunting!

Good, authentic bags are becoming harder and harder to find these days. That's why Jerry at WPG started making his replica bag in the first place is because he just could not find anymore bags out there. Honestly, your old bets are to wait for one to go on ebay, most likely from another gearhead or buy one of Jerry's replica bags. They are well worth the price, brand new, not stains, NO SMELL. I talked with Noel a while back about him making replica bags, he seemed reluctant to do so, but we can hope :wink:
