Original HJ Leaders Buckle?

[RobertE]

Gents, I could use some help with this one. I've read the threads on the M4/116 buckles, and it looks like mine compares favorably with the originals.

Is this a fake, or a good original? I appreciate any opinions, either way.

Folks, I got this buckle with a number of other items, and can return it - but the clock is ticking. Any opinions would be appreciated - regards, Robert

Hello Robert,

I'm sorry for the lack of answers, so far many collectors are still suspicious toward that kind of HJ officer buckle.
May be in the future we'll be able to bring more light to the argument, but at the moment you have to take your final decision by yourself.

Best

Hello Robert If you search under the RZM M/4 116 you'll find a few threads. I like the look of the buckle and it a rare maker. Kirby
