Hi Andybysea you might tell me ? I've had it over 30 years can't remember where I got it now it's that long ago

Sorry Nope it aint WW2 commando bergen now as i can see it properly its a civi pattern using parts of left over 37 pattern webbing,aparently quite common after the war. The material used for main body is the correct type, the leather part where the straps attach looks like the part the metal commando bergen frame would fit, and like i say the straps look like 37pattern webbing, its probably a civi from the late 40's 50's design, the commando bergan had a larger main body, pockets on each side with utility straps above each,a pocket(straped and zipped) on the front, a pocket in the lid flap, and it was on a metal frame, look see if you can find any markings on yours to show it came from old wartime materials left over,although theyve probs long since worn off,if they were ever there. cheers Andy.

ps just noticed in the bottom pic the inside of the strap has a small loop of material stitched to it ,well thats a clear sign its left over 37 pattern webbing,that strap came from a 37 pattern cross strap or yoke to support the belt kit.
