pavement74 Posted September 11, 2015 Share #1 Posted September 11, 2015 Hi. I'm new to the forum. I've been collecting military itemshttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09/11/02823ec1afb4ae993e7308a8fb66d005.jpg for about 6-7 years. I thought I'd share one of the nicest US items I've found. I bought this set on Craigslist about a year ago from the son of a 508th PIR vet. He was attached to the 82nd Airborne during the war. From what I've read about M42 jackets (which isn't much) I've heard some have "original" or "replaced" zippers. How can you tell the difference? http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09/11/ff4c2f6bb06e564a9aca7bbf54711a0b.jpghttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09/11/d0cd0f4602d5d3866978c6f9813f031f.jpghttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09/11/b348481dc48a9858aff78d20bacc15d5.jpghttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09/11/4c9755b91bdc7f7c2fd271fd408fc190.jpghttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09/11/2d6204261e8b51f259ef6263f2d88ee9.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kadet Posted September 12, 2015 Share #3 Posted September 12, 2015 Looks really promising, but hard to tell much from the small picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
