Hi, thank you for your thoughts 👍 The green material is rubberised like some of the 1960's 90's magazine pouches. I'm guessing it goes with a belt but was that belt rubberised too but of the old German pattern with the tongue inside the belt ?

This buckle does not look like any Bw "Kastenschloss" variant I have seen before and is not mentioned in any of my Bw uniform books but I never say never until the opposite is proven. Marking looks like "OLC" (Overhoff & Cie from Luedenscheid), a well known Army supplier, so it was obviously made in Germany. Some thoughts, maybe a prototype or a very very short existing variant? Maybe made for other services like Zivilschutz, Red Cross, etc.? Maybe made for other country´s forces? I have to do some more research. Question: Is the flap rubberized?

Hi Dave and welcome to the WMF!   Lars

Hello,   does this jacket could be a UK ww2 Khaki Drill /  Bush Jacket ?   

Absolutely, these are always learning opportunities for us all  : )

Hi, i recently acquired this buckle. Looks Bundeswehr. The framed pebbling, the drab nylon flap but pronged and with a non combat style female hook catch. one small marking inside, which i have tried to show. Thoughts anyone ?  

Hi Sarge, thanks for the welcome.  over the decades i've had all sorts, no fixed passion. A few Stahlhelm, mostly US & UK WW2 uniforms & equipment. At one point i had 16 WW2 Denison smocks and several Mk2 HSATs all WW2 dated. Never had a huge amount at one time as i worked around the globe and tended to enjoy the chase, then sell to fund the next one. Over the last few years i've been winding things down & focus more on my allotment garden, my motorbike, bicycle & walking.  Do you have areas of special interest ? cheers Dave

Thanks for your thoughts gents, it's as i expected.  i bought it thinking "fake" and it cost me half the price of a cheap repro.  i was planning to hammer out the swastika so i could use it on a belt as i like the design so much but then had a moment of self-doubt & thought i better double check lol. Now where's my hammer and anvil ?!  And i should also say that i am glad that my photos will hopefully help other collectors

I have to agree with Sarge, it appears to be a fake unfortunately. Apparently this type was produced in the 60's. Here's a known fake to compare it with.       

These circles look like spot welds to hold the loop on.  I don't like that they show through from back to front.  I also don't like the prongs or the leather tab.   We have some buckle collectors that have more expertise than I.  Let's see what they say.
