Hello, I just received this tropical A-Frame. I am new to fieldgear, but after actually handling this, I am very comfortable that this example is original WWII . There is a makers name and date...but it really cannot be read clearly. Do other folks agree with me on this one...it never hurts to get a second opinion? Thanks in advance!

Okay, I'll play devil's advocate. To me it appears that the large rings have considerable wear and use. However, does any of the rest of the webbing or buckles have any wear at all?
Also, have you peaked inside where the upper strap would slide through? What do you see in there?HCComment

I believe - this uneven wear is just a problem of storage - corrosion got some parts more than others...
IMHO frame looks very good...Comment

Thanks
All,
Thank you for your replies. I too had the concerns about the uneven wear. Photos can only show so much...nothing beats a hands on look. All buckles have some form of rust on them. Just happens that the one side is a lot worse than the other...this is also reflected where the metal meets the webbing. yes, there are "Stiffeners" inside the webbing...tough to describe what they look like. Thanks again.
