Thank you in advance

Tony,

Since no-one has had a go at your query for 2 days I will attempt an answer. I know nothing about belts, and the photo isn't very clear on that, so I will concentrate on the buckle. Nothing wrong with the buckle, but to me it's a standard field-grey 'Heer' of the 1940 Dienststück pattern. 'Field-grey' was an elastic term and shades can vary enormously. To pay a premium for a 'tropical' set, I think you should be looking for a truly tan-coloured buckle.

Best regards,

Karl

Hi Karl, I appreciate your comments . I think you right.

Sory for the non reaction of my part, I had big PC problems this weekend.

I agree with Karl. If you need to buy a AK buckle, buy one with the corect web tab.
