Hello all

This is maybe a strange question but I want to know if somebody have (seen) a '41 stamp in a M42 tunic or a '42 stamp in a M43 tunic ? Is this possible ? I can imagine that the M42 tunic already was available in the end of '41 just like the M44 pea-pattern was in end of '43

Thanks a lot

Hardigan

Depends if the tunic was a transition between a 41 type and 42.

Let's make it not more complicated , Fred .
With M41 you mean that M40 type tunic with 6 buttons ? Let's keep away that one , oke ? Just the official M42,M43 and M44

Complicated? What's complicated about my comment?

In have never seen the M44 pattern in HBT with a 1943 stamp. The cotton version would be more likely.
An official M42 tunic would carry a 42(+) stamp... according to my experience.
