USGI M1 Rifle Sling | Sealed Package | Oct 1965 | Cotton Webbing | NOS

Firepower slung over your shoulder! Up for sale is a genuine US Army cotton bandoleer for 5.56mm M-16 magazines (7-pocket version). The crisp ink stamp reads "CHASE BAG CO. 7-73-B", securely dating this piece to the very end of the Vietnam War in 1973. The bandoleer is in mint, unissued New Old Stock (NOS) condition. As a fantastic historical detail, it still features the original large safety pin attached to the shoulder strap, which soldiers used to adjust the length in the field.

The classic badge of a combat-proven Infantryman! Up for sale is a genuine US Army Combat Infantryman Badge (CIB - 1st Award) in the traditional full-color metal and enamel finish. The reverse is stamped with the "V-21" hallmark, identifying it as a product of Vanguard Military Equipment Corp. Since the Institute of Heraldry introduced these alphanumeric codes in 1965, this badge perfectly dates to the Vietnam War era through the 1970s. It shows honest wear and a beautiful, authentic patina.

The airborne pride of US Advisors! Up for sale is a genuine, Vietnam War-era cloth parachute badge (Senior Jump Wings) of the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN). Rather than a local Asian copy, this is a high-quality, US-manufactured patch. These were produced specifically for American personnel (US Advisors, MACV-SOG, Airborne units) who earned the qualification while serving in Vietnam and wore the badge on their US uniforms. It is in excellent, unissued New Old Stock (NOS) condition with a period-correct cut-edge.

A classic Green Beret SSI paired with a massive rarity! The main arrowhead patch shows signs of honest field use, but the real star is the matching teal and yellow "AIRBORNE" tab. This tab is from a rare experimental/test production run intended to replace the standard black-and-gold tabs to create a fully "color-matched" look. Both pieces feature a classic unmerrowed Cut Edge and snowy back. An exceptional, conversation-starting set for any serious Special Forces or patch collector!

Authentic Vietnam War era US Army neckscarf. Made of 100% cotton in the OG-109 shade. A genuine period piece featuring a clear 1968 military contract stamp. Excellent, unissued condition.

Iconic gear from the jungles of Vietnam! Up for sale is a genuine pair of US Army Jungle Fatigue trousers in the legendary ERDL camouflage pattern. This is the highly desirable "Green Dominant" (often called "Lime") variation in lightweight 100% cotton ripstop. Manufactured in 1968 by GLENN MFG. CO. These pants are in beautiful field-used condition—the colors remain vibrant and striking. They feature a small, authentic field repair (hand-stitched darning) on the fabric, adding incredible character and history to the piece. Size Small Regular. A fantastic item for reenactors, collectors, or vintage streetwear.

A true special operations legend! Up for sale is a genuine US Navy lace-up wet weather parka. Originally produced during WWII, these rugged rubberized canvas pullovers became legendary during the Vietnam War, heavily favored by US Navy SEALs, UDTs, and USMC Force Recon to fight off the monsoon rains and river wind. This specific piece is in used, "salty" condition and features a unique factory flaw or field repair: the left sleeve is constructed from a noticeably darker shade of canvas. Features the classic U.S.N. chest stencil. Size Small (but cuts very large).

A highly elusive piece for the advanced M7 collector: The US M7 Bayonet manufactured by FZR (Fraser Manufacturing Corp.). Fraser is considered one of the rarest Vietnam-era contractors, having produced only an estimated 40,000 units across two contracts in 1971 and 1972. Finding one in this condition is exceptional. The crossguard is stamped "M7 FZR". Paired with a correct period M8A1 scabbard by TWB.
