Hi guys can i ask you opinions on this one it did fit when i bought it many years ago

SD Jacket
Looks humped up. Good partial cuff title, fake tabs, fake SD diamond and eagle
too perhaps. The tunic is not SS/SD cut. I am sorry!
Peter -
It's a BGS tunic tarted up with fake insignia.
I could entertain a straight-on shot of that sleeve eagle though.
Sorry.

Ian is correct - it is BGS. I was snookered on one of these as a novice collector many years ago.

BGS is Bundes Grenschutz which is the West German border guard Service.

I am betting thats a Sieder fake eagle but a straight on look would help confirm it. Hope you didnt pay a lot for this.Comment

These used to crop up very regularly in the UK army surplus stores in the 70's, often they were (very poorly) rebadged as IIIrd Reich ... some dyed black as pre-war SS tunics. I bought one myself many years ago and still have it here somewhere.
