Description

A French-made copy of the American M-1910 canteen, but somewhat bigger than the original - these hold almost 1,5 litres of water! Comes with a compact cup and a carrying pouch.

This model has seen action in all sorts of African quarrels and the Vietnam War. Not exactly a gold-egg laying hen for us, we just keep these in stock when we can for the historical value. These have both an M-1910 wire hanger and belt loop for attachment. The total volume of the bottle is about 1,5 litres!

French army surplus

In used but serviceable condition. We recommend a thorough cleaning before use! Also a word of warning: some of these were never used and may contain loose bits of aluminium inside. Fortunately the mouth is big enough for just about any brushlike thing, so wash and scrub well before drinking from it.
