Hi,

it's an original IAB in SHuCo (Sohni, Heubach & Co) design.

@Frikorps Danmark: Again the same question, Why it should be a fake?

I agree also.

It looks like a SHuCo design 4 vein type...
but there is something I don't like in it, I might be wrong too.
In this situation my internal voice would say- find another one.

Original or not, the broken pin alone would be enough to put me off it. Would rather save my money for an intact example.

Hi guys,

I completely agree with you, that I wouln't buy it either, but these SHuCo IABs are exactly known like this. The porous looking material is known from the late war examples and shouldn't be reason to think that it's a fake. However, if the thread starter thinks to buy this example I also can just give the advice to wait for a better example, even if it's an original.

Hi.
I'm still sticking with that it's a fake, gentleman..
Please look again on the upper red marking. You think it's ok even for a late war product!?!

Hi Peter,

sorry, but I really don't see any red flags on this IAB.
Please have a look on some other late war IABs in SHuCo design. You will see that the quality is even lower.
