Y-Straps id - period or post-war / repro ?

[MP44tom]

and again , unfortunately it isn't......

The endstrap is post war Austrian (which are often seen sold as original)
- hook has straight stitching, tip of endstrap is not pointed, holes are not raindrop shaped


Don't worry, you'll get there !!

Here is a photo of the rear strap - the holes like they are raindrop shape

probably altered to look real, but this definately is a post war austrian endstrap

Thanks again - I made notes so no worries about anymore questions :-)

p.s looked at your website and now I know what you mean about the stitching !

Thanks !
