Hi Pierre
The truth be said I am not very keen on that colour scheme....I have never seen it in period field gear
Just my opinion.

Hi Pierre,
this looks like repainted; probably done by kids after the war for playing soldiers.
The color scheme is not pre 45, I'm sorry

SORRY FOR THE SALE BUT

this green is familiar....ie the wrong humbrol paint used to colour gi 00.00 scale soldiers during the 70s. as with the soldiers, someone seems to have forgotten to wash the case in soapy water first.
i dont like the green but...i cant say for sure it aint original camo.
id say a casual defacement of an original item done around 1976.

Like I wrote on the link you provided:

I don't like the varying shades of green, especially the bright lime like one. I could never see such a light green being utilized as camouflage. It's too bright and would surely stick out. Also the camoflage is way too busy, and is a inappropriate in any theater of war. Lastly it looks hastily applied, and it not only covers the various leather straps but appears to have bubbled from post war application.
