      Bad, IMO, with those pins. Covering the middle part of the runes and swaz don't help with making an opinion, but still

        Post-war copies.

        Duct tape can't fix stupid, but it can muffle the sound.

          For a better example, look at Martin Stiles site 'Hannahs Reich'.

          He has a set at the top of the first page.

          I wouldn't have a clue on how they should be constructed but the pins are very different from your example.

          Regards,
          Chris.

            If you do a search on the forum, I posted a couple nice original sets of 42s and 43s.

              YUK, lots of fakes but originals are far and few!
              Merry Christmas!

                  I have had two pairs of real shields over the years, I just sold one. They are slow to move because very few people can figure out what is real and what is not. I think they are cool and greatly undervalued!

                    This is what a real set looks like.

                      hello Gents ,
                      does it mean that only shields with the 3 hooks are genuine and those with the pins to screw are post-war ...?

                        Yes, IMO
