IMA Zeltbahn?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/German-WWII-Ten ... 45fd5435f2
Does anyone have one of these? They look pretty good and not too bad of a price. Colors look right. Can anyone give a review? Material, colors on both sides, etc?

Re: IMA Zeltbahn?
I think they are the same as Zib's. They are better then sturms, but not quite there yet.

Re: IMA Zeltbahn?
That is what i was thinking as well. I think this is a good deal though for us buyers. Same price as sturm but a better copy. I would get the one from panther store but they only have that rare tropical veraion. And i cant justifu spending loads of cash for a sm wholesale zelt or destroying an original.

Re: IMA Zeltbahn?
Anything to do with Ima-Usa & German militaria is bad news...I know this is a bit off topic but,they got a lot of stuff posted as "Copied Directly from a original in our collection" And when i requested photographs of these originals compared to their repro and NO response yet..And i dont believe they have any true "original WWII German militaria"....Best bet is to stay away from them..Overall their stuff is low quality

Re: IMA Zeltbahn?
Kevin, this time you are wrong.
I have 8 (count 'em, original heer splinter zelts.
This IMA reproduction has the best colors out of any of my four repros.
The buttons need reinforcement, though, like 99 percent of reproduction anything.

Re: IMA Zeltbahn?
Brand new. How many original zelts do you have, Rains?
They are far from "original quality", but they are really, really nice.

Re: IMA Zeltbahn?
I bought three of the IMA Zelts. Their pattern is nice compared to Sturms. A little brighter than my original 39 dated zelt, but then again I havent seen an unissued one in my hand. Nice three hole buttons, they all button together. But remember, they are only $69 a piece. You should not be expecting perfection at this price. Way I see it, they have it alot better than Sturm or other companies do, so it is a fine substitute to an original for me. I'm somewhat of a stitch nazi and I like these alot, for the value of course.

Owning originals of anything does not make you an expert? Only an owner of originals.
I'm sure the IMA zelts are an improvement over the Sturm examples. They would have to be pretty crappy not to be.
If they are the same as the Zib zelts then they are Ok, still not perfect. I think there are errors in the zib print.
Anyone fancy posting a good clear pic of the IMA print?
