A belated welcome to the forum Patrick
Sorry I can not offer any help with authenticating this piece as I have no experience with German HBT items.
The best regards,

Hello,
Welcome to the forum...
The Drillich may stand a chance, but better detailed photos showing the interior and nature of the cloth inside should help us out...
The shoulderstraps are reproductions from Sturm/Miltech, they're very recognizable...
Other insignia look original
Thanks

I think it is a good one. I don't see anything that jumps out at me.
My HBT stuff is Lw so not a good comparison there.

Hello,
The collar tabs and eagle are original. A view of the underside of both would show if this is a factory application. It looks good in my opinion.

Hello,
Fred : i agree that both insignia are original but even if the Drillich looks also original from these photos, i am a bit bothered by the color of the "lining", the lack of field dressings pocket (perhaps it was unsewn) and the most important by the lack of eyelets for the belt hooks...the tunic does not look retailored.
I have never seen an "untouched" Heer Drillich of this type without eyelets...
Thanks
