A Question for Ron

[ronmarsden]

Hi Rich,
You are correct about RHC being Royal Highlanders of Canada. This is the standard British 1903 bandolier equipment used by most Commonwealth countries up until WW1.
The no 22 could be just a regimental stores issue no. Five pouches holding ten rounds of ammunition proved impractical for trench warfare it was soon dropped by the infantry but continued to be worn by cavalry units.
Regards Ron.

Hello Ron

That's briliant, thank you very much for the information! I'm happy the bandolier is finally identified. What could be a realistic value estimation in your opinion?

Thanks in advace, regards Rich

Hi thanks again for the help Ron!

I'm offering mine for 150 pounds on my facebook group (german & allied militaria sales), it's been there for months people don't seem to appreciate this. They all want german stuff...
Is there a section for selling items on this forum?

Best regards Rich
