Right with you there Steve, on all accounts.
In the last 2 years, I think Ive seen only 1 or 2 ELC B-10s pop up for sale. I cant wear a BR due to the short length for my lanky frame.
Real McCoys could work and make a decent B-10, but again... Finding one in the right size, in the right condition, at the right price...
If something happened to my ELC B-10, Id buy another. That said, ELC needs to re-source their mouton. 5* and AVI's jacket's have better mouton.
But lets see. This ATF is not trying to be an original or an ELC, its $189
Im curious about the lining, if its soft and comfortable then it may suit for everyday wear.
My real concern is sizing (and import duties!?!), I wont return this, postage alone is 1/4 the price, so if it doesn't fit then its another 'pass' to a new home at expense.
My curiosity is an expensive trait.
