These traps were discussed on this thread. Post number 72 show a picture dating from the 1960's of Andrew Mollo's single button field grey M43 with embroidered trap like the one that started this thread;

Other examples of this type of embroidered trap were also discussed,

p.s. also look at the single button caps shown in post numbers 63 to 69

The trap is real, the rest is not IMO.

Yes I have no problem with the trap being good.

The cap can come down to whether you are a "Hatfield" or a "McCoy"

I'm not a fan of the trap.....IMO is a fake.....

Cap & trap are good. I fondled this one some years
ago at Ted's and it's not a humper.

There's nothing wrong with the cap, but I know there are strongly held opinions on this type M43. I am happy to accept that some don't believe they are original, and others don't.

Merry Christmas, everyone, and health and peace to you all!

I would add it to my collection without problems.

With all due respect sir, that's a pretty lame comment. It lets the user off the hook for anything decisive whatsoever. In other words, if I had no clue, I would say that. I'm glad you posted again. Happy Christmas mate.

"were good" you mean?

[Panzerknacker12]

Bottom line is no one here knows.

[jimt]

really ?

as the Panzer m.43 cap with cardboard underside visor is so easy to get ( Dachau version ) why would anyone bother with its controversial cousin ? I cannot figure this one out ????

I think Ben is having a little joke

You needed to read more threads on WAF

So your saying this is a convenient "Escape Clause" that is used on the WAF when a person is clueless, but feels compelled to comment? Like saying: "It's not like the one I think I remember seeing 5 years ago." I get that! OK no problem!
