    Improved 2nd model N&G..

    These IMO postwar N&G 2nd models first came with the 3rd model hinges.., they've now changed them and put in some new created 2nd model hinges..
    They still show a couple of errors and it's easy to point them out, ..I think it's better to say not to buy a set in this configuration.. box, booklet, goggles.. all is postwar.
    Straps show errors, the (new) 'fat' hinges are still wrong, the lenses will not fit any original, so wrong, frame has some evil areas, box, booklet..., not what it should be..
    They can be found on Ebay mostly and frequently, but I've seen sets at dealer sites also.., beware, they're postwar and IMO they still do not match any originals.., thank God..

    I have seen these new genaration of fakes also, and as you say there´s still some differences with an original pair. But they are getting closer
    A lot of people will get burned by these.

      I'm also sure people will get burned by the dozen by these, especially when there's nothing to compare to and/or when they've never studied details..
      Yes, fakers are improving them, the size mark 2 looks better than the one before, the hinges are changed now, the frame is a bit bigger..
      Still no cigar, but lethal to the unknown.
      The fact that these are still improving means they're fakes in motion and no discovered old stock...
