    Default Sabre side pockets

    Are they scarce just now?
    A few sites seem to be out of stock?

    I got mine from here, but be warned a lot of people complain about getting bad service from them (though mine arrived promptly):

    UK army Issue PLCE pouches fit etc and most Surplus shops have them in various conditions
    i guess OG is harder to get these days
    berghaus and lowe alpine Fit as well (the military ones like Vulcan , Strike etc) but are a taller narrower Pouch

    or try a Medic style side pouch bit more expensive but i like them

    Try spingfields. I got a pair of PLCE pouches and a yoke in OG for £18.99. Second hand but in excellent condition.

    You can get the cammo ones at most surplus stores. They fit the Sabre but of course most people prefer the OG version.

    You could always go for the Berghaus side pouches rather than the Karrimoor ones. They're slightly smaller (slimmer......10ltr instead of 12.5ltr) but fit the Sabre / PLCE range just as well - although they don't have the snap buckles at top & bottom, just the zips.

    This guy on ebay seems to have the world's supply at various prices and conditions - check his "other items" for his full range. Make sure you get the newer pattern that fit the PLCE packs - the old pattern zips are the opposite way 'round and the pouches will only go on upside down on a new Sabre or PLCE pack.

    I'm not the seller and I've not bought from him, so I can't comment on whether he's good, bad or ugly!
