Yes It seems a little different even though my exemplar was clearly made to looks like the US WW2 issues…
But it is nor US issue neither French …
It could be Private Purchase in late 40’s- early 50’s … I don’t see an other possibility .
It could be interesting to identify the sole’s logo !
I was thinking maybe Dutch? but I'm probably wrong.
I can show a not common RAAF '55 pair to add into the mix!
The fact it was used by a French in Indochina make me think it could difficult be Dutch but who knows ?
The RAF’s ones are very cool
I do not think they are US made. Or at best post WW2. As you note, they are similar but still different in some critical areas.
But again, I don't know much about these.
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated
My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them
