Jens, I would like to hear more opinions in this one, not sure just with pictures but I'm not very comfortable with it. First time that I see a triangle factory machine stitching eagle in a KA side cap. By the pictures the lining and the maker stamp don't like me.Collector of Kriegsmarine and Küstenartillerie items

I'm not very comfortable either. Although on (KM) M43 caps all sorts of triangle applications and combinations seem to have occured, I neither have seen such an application on a KA side cap. This combined with the overal status of the cap and materials (greenish wool, rather off-lining in a KA cap), I would not prefer to own it, not definitly claiming it to be bad for that matter!
Such a non regulation cap with machine stiched insignia I would only like to have in a field worn condition, not mint like this garment.
I have not checked the Rbnr for correctness.

Jens you are right, typical tropical M43 caps maker, but is the first KA side cap for me. The maker stamp looks very similar to the known examples, a better picture would be great. Usually the eagle stitching way used by this firm in the tropical M43 caps is in triangle like this one, so it has a good chance to be good.Collector of Kriegsmarine and Küstenartillerie items

I have also seen this RB nr Stamp in Kriegsmarine Helferinnen side caps. In those side caps they use white ink because of the dark lining in the caps. Here is a couple of pictures of the RB nr stamp.

Looking for more info in the forum I have found this thread with a not good Heer tropical cap with similar stamps, so I still have my doubts as is a new maker for me in a KA side cap, the very unusual way to stitch the eagle, the lack of the second sewn around the edge of the lining, ... so many non usual points.

Nonetheless, and that is what would make me more comfortable, is not to have something like say 95% convincing but a non-brainer... But that is for me of course.
