Hi Luftwaffenkopf,

in my opinion it's an original IAB made by Wilhelm Horbacher in worn condition.

Hi Luft......

......Those angled images make it very difficult to get a good look. Please submit some straight on shots(front & back).

I will say that even with the angled images your IAB has a chance of being genuine TR manufacture.

Hi!

From these (not really good) pics, I would also say that it's a good genuine piece! You can compare it to mine in the next thread.

Kind regards,

Peter

And let me just add, that the pin is mounted upside-down!

Kind regards, Peter

I didn't mention that, but it's true

Better pics would certainly help, but IMO it's original with a "maybe" replaced pin and the pin inside the hinge was certainly replaced at one point. Very worn throughout, but I'm unsure if the catch was repaired, but a clear close-up there would resolve that too.

I agree, looks like a good one but with replaced hingepin and backwards pin.
