Default Carrier Buckles

Maurice, Canadian Mk.1* carriers originally used many rubber straps, but later (1942-1943) began using more canvas webbing ones. Most of the straps for the tools on the rear were 3/4" wide and had simple buckles like the ones on '37 pattern web gear. The ones that held the tarp and jack were
1-1/4" and had quick release buckles like the ones here. Also, most of the straps I've seen have painted steel (khaki or light stone) ends rather than brass as per the last picture.
