In Reply to: Re: I know I already asked but nobody answered. Is there a big difference between the Mk VI and Mk VII sholder bags. posted by Michaelson on November 19, 1999 at 10:46:52:

: : I checked out What price glory and they mentioned that the bags are similar with a few differences, but what exactly are the differences.

: From what I remember from past postings and discussions, the difference seems to be the number of drain holes in the bags. I also think I remember reading that the Mark VI can be seen as the bag used in T of D that caught fire on the bridge. The extra drain holes can be seen there. If anyone knows of anything else, chime in. Regards. Michaelson

The MKVI and the MKVII bags both usually came with two brass drains. I have several of each type and all but one (a MKVI) have two holes. I have the one MKVI with three drain holes, Jerry at What Price Glory told me that it was a manufacturing error. I remember a couple weeks ago that (I think) Abner and Patterson were talking about some Canadian MKVII bags that came with only one drain.

Thanks,
