iraqi field gear question
Hey guys, I need some help.
I have a new surplus set of captured iraqi field gear from desert storm. My dad brought it back from a depot they occupied after the war stopped. I am looking for two things, 1st is it worth anything? Second, how the heck do you set it up. There is a web belt, H-harness, 2 ammo pouchs, another 2 pouchs (see photo) and a small rucksack. The ruck has attach points but no straps, and it's small, I didn't know if it tied into the harness and web belt or not. I only have the 2 pictures for now, my camera batteries died, and I won't have more pics until latter in the week. I can't find any identifying marks other than the occasional inspectors tag. Thanks for whatever help you can give. Tom ![]() ![]()

It almost looks like British pattern 58 webbing.

Iraqi webbing is a P58 copy made either in China or Pakistan. It is set up just like the British standard P58 webbing and was worn about the same way. It is worth something, check e-bay, but I would say ballpark, $50 to $100 with your set being on the upper end, looking very nice and being mostly complete (missing a water bottle carrier).
