These are some items from my own collection. Various belts and NVA rice bags ("elephant intestines" pattern--difficult to see in picture).

Here is another belt from my collection with an NVA issue individual medical pouch.

Here are two other items from my collection. At the top is the standard ammo bandolier for the SKS rifle. This is a wartime piece with wooden toggle and loop closure. Earlier versions from Korean War Era had two "twill tape" ties.

The second rig is a wartime example of an AK-47 Chest Rig. It has pouches for AK-47 30 round ammo magazines, an oiler, and a cleaning kit.

There was a third type of rig used in the war but not illustrated here. A shoulder or side bag also for the AK-47. Keep checking this page as I plan to include an example in near future.
