Usa Army Fishtail Parka M 1951 Korea verify

[Aleksio]

Hello, my dear fedoristas,

I would like to buy this parka, but I am not so knowledgeable about M51-M65 fishtail parkas, so I'd like to know if it's genuine military piece? I am aware that the hood lining is from original M65, that fur is real, and the lining is mohair freeze and not alpaca. See all the photos seller provided, but I could ask him for some more if needed, which one would that be?

All the best,
Aleks

There is this thread for that. Maybe there's already something in there anyway.

M-51 Fishtail Parka and such

I suppose that other members have a version of this type of jacket. Some can run hundreds of dollars. Or they can be bought for the price of a backroom rub n' tug. Share your thoughts and experiences.

Nothing tangible about my case, I already see that threads, but thanks for pointing out.

Looks like a paperclip Talon main zipper, which would date the jacket to 1950s.
