Id call this an "RZM" style as opposed to "dachau" style. That being said I/m not crazy about the eagle posted. What you're looking for is a relatively easy find (decently priced as well) so check the sites I,ve listed. You'll find a nice "no questions asked" return policy for less than $300.00. No reason to gamble,,,here's a few good ones. Regards, Richard

Well I have my doubts thats why I posted it . The 4th wing line down extends past the 2nd and it has a bit of a fuzzy look to it . I didnt see one like it in the fake section and I didnt see one like it in Bandos book either . Still on the fence . Just curious more than anything . Thanks for youre opinions guys .

I believe these are replicas. The broad, rounded head, slightly wider body, and irregular chest fletching are give aways on these. Blurred wing lines aren't good, but are seen on some late war RZM types.

The poorly aligned wings are also seen on late war birds, but this bird type is routinely seen on ground-up fake SS tunics, and is not a good one IMO.
