Best Answer

A bandolier was first used in the sixteenth century in order for soldiers to carry ammunition. Depending on the gun or rifle it will only hold a certain amount of ammunition, therefore using a bandolier will hold more, ready for when it runs out. It's useful for combat and the bandolier is fitted across the soldier's chest.
