I have an '03 Mk. 1, and was amazed at how easy it was to find Pedersen mag pouches, the bolt pouch, and the rounds themselves.
Sarco used to sell, as a kit, all the bits to convert a Mk. 1 back to its original configuration, and I think some of those parts are still available.
Fifteen-twenty years ago, there was talk of a reproduction Pedersen device being made in Washington state. There was going to be one chambered for the original cartridge, and one chambered in .32 Auto. I don't think it got very far, and I couldn't even get a reply when I tried contacting the alleged source.
