M16 camo good?

[FPH]

Hi all,

What do you think of this M16 three tones camo with 1917 liner?
All the pads are there, but one is loose, the other almost and one is still attached.
Thanks & bye.

Inside is ok as is normally the case. Outside of pads look good from the pics but the inside look too good to be true in comparison. The liner cords is probably not original.
Outside? I don't like it. It just reminds me of a repaint I bought on Ebay three months ago and sent back.

PS, if that is a repaint it was done long ago.

I think its one that was probably painted by the GI on the way home or sometime just after WW1 as a lot of them were .Rob.

As Charles would probably say, the color tones are wrong.
