Yes please do Mark . I traded a USAF survival knife , for this smock many years ago at a paint ball field . I thought it would be a sin to use it like that . The material is a tight weave , not unlike the type used in Canadian wind proof kit . I've got some photos taken of some other camo today , and will post them when time permits . By the way did your package ever get there ?
Cheers Chris
sorry Chris one thing leads to another yes the parcel arrived some time back thanx .
Thought I had e mailed you dam CRAFT disease anyway.
Sorry Chris I could not find the images I was looking for it has been sometime the link may be dead now but you will find this interesting and there is reference to fake Peerless tags being applied to smocks.

I thought I would post my Swiss Leibermuster camo , there is a heavy weight smock with small pack , lightweight shirt and pants , rain poncho , helmet cover and two caps . Great pattern but the heavy weight with built in webbing is really heavy .
Nice Alpenflauge Chris.
Regards Mark
And here is my Austrian Fleckeriteppich , or Erbsenmuster camo . It's all getting harder to find these days , and putting together the combat gear took sometime . The pants are 1966 (with belt ) and 1970 , plus smock . The webbing contains , the small pack , bread bag , canteen cover , and zeltbahn ( one of 4 ) . Also Austrian Y straps , the belt is German . Hope you guys like it and if anyone wants pictures of any particular item I've posted please just ask .
Cheers Chris
Nice Chris and I agree the field gear is very hard to source I only have the field pack and Y-straps.
Regards Mark
I'd like to find the belt and hat , but I don't know if there was an issue camo hat . Anyone have a link to any sites that show Austrian gear ?
Cheers
James really like the Erdl coat, and now I realise who Mark was on about, very nice addition bud
Hi Chris , I really like the Para DPM smock and Beret. As well as the Swiss and Austrian camo shown. Those Swiss items are bomb proof and stupidly heavy when wet,but a classic camo print.
Look forward to seeing more of your camo as and when you post it here
The Swiss is great stuff , but heavy !!! I had a friend who removed most of the pockets from a heavy jacket , make it more wearable .
Here is my Romanian M93 set , more to come
