The RAP M-56 Reserve tool and accessories Model 1956 was a genuine leather magazine pouch of Yugoslavian (SFRY) origin. It was produced and intended for their armed forces, firstly for YPA (Yugoslavian People's Army) as well as for their police, the Yugoslavian People's Militsiya special units (the ones equipped with long firearms). Firstly issued in 1956 (as its sole designation clearly points) and intended for spare magazines of domestically produced SMG (Sub-Machine Gun), the CZ M-56 (Crvena Zastava Model 1956), colloquially often nicknamed Pikavac (loosely translated as Stinger) among YPA personnel, which was practically a hybrid of famous German MP-40 (Maschinenpistole 1940) and Soviet/Russian PPS (Pistolet Pulemjot Sudajeva), by combining a MP-40 under-folding stock, barrel, grip and receiver together with its mechanism along with Soviet 7,62x25mm M-30 caliber (Yugoslavian version of that cartridge was designated as M-49) and thus literally the same thirty round metallic box magazines of the PPS (very similar but not interchangable magazines were used in another and more known model; the PPŠ, although that one more often used its 71 round drum magazines). So, this pouch could be practically used for both Yugoslavian models (CZ M-49 and M-56) as well as for German MP-40/41/35/34/28/18 and Soviet PPS/PPŠ. Moreover, since the most other SMG's of the period featured roughly similar thirty round metallic box magazines, this pouch could be freely used for almost all other then existing models of the world, like American Thompson, Italian Beretta M-38/42, even the British Sten and Japanese Nambu Type-100. Today, this pouch is colloquially known simply as JNA RAP or M56 RAP, or, in English speaking world, the Yugoslav/Yugo SMG/M56 pouch.
