PS: The buckle was introduced because the Swiss Army gas masks had a hose to the filter in the pocket. If you had to put on the gas mask (gas alarm) and had the rifle on your back, you first had to take off the gas mask again to get to the weapon. This was impractical because you either died from the gas or could not defend yourself with the weapon. The buckle was therefore introduced so that the strap could be quickly unhooked without removing the gas mask.
