m42 Feldbluse

[nick d.c.]

Does anyone have a M42 feldbluse in Italian wool, or did someone ever see one?
I can imagine that when the Germans took the fabric in the summer of 1943, they wouldn't make the M42 model anymore but only the M43?

Is this correct or does someone has some pictorial evidence to show?

Thanks a lot

A private purchase M42 may have been made for an officer if he prefered that style. The regular ones I have only seen in M43 and M44.

Here you can see a nice example.

For whatever reason some makers continued to produce scalloped flaps into 1944.

So after 1943 the model of feldbluse m42 was still made?
Is it the flash what makes the jacket grey instead of the blue color of Italian wool like in the links Nippo?

Thanks for the answers
