THIS IS THE REAL DEAL!!!

This is an extremely rare authentic military combat vest / ephod of the Israeli Army (Idf / Zahal) used also by the US Delta Navy Seals. 

It is the first generation of these vests with laces attaching the parts and the back cross (X) straps.

100% authentic - made in Israel by Rabinowitz and has the official Idf / Zahal black stamp (a bit faded). Chances are that this vest was used during the 1982 First Lebanon War.

Adjustable, with padding.

Color: light olive drab.

Condition: The vest is in amazing perfect condition. As seen in the photo's it has very minor wear which is only natural and well expected from a vest nearly 50 years old that went through combat.

The vest was a bit camo combat blackened by the soldier which used it. The pad has the soldiers name scribbled on it.

Both the metal closing buckles are intact. This is rare as in most vests of this era these metal buckles are broken/chipped/not functional.

Please view the photo's - what you see is exactly what you will get.

A few small general notes:

-   All my items are 100% genuine authentic. Unless otherwise stated in the listing the photos are of the actual item that you are purchasing.               

-  I ship items on a daily basis and usually within HOURS from your purchase/payment.

-  In most cases items are sent via registered air mail with a tracking number.

   eBay indicates an "estimated delivery time" which is a total fantasy…maybe good for items sent within the US.  Since I ship from Israel the fact is that the actual estimated average delivery times are as follows: to the US/Canada: 17-24 business days, to Europe: 10-17 business days, to the Far East and South America: 17-24 business days and to Australia/NZ: 30 business days.

   I have seen shorter and much longer delivery times but that is the average.

   In any case – buy with confidence – I fully stand behind my sales!

-  If for any reason you are not happy with your item/s please contact me ASAP so I can resolve the issue.  Also feel free to contact me with any question that you may have.  You will find that I am a very easy going ex-Golani Brigade Warrior (70's)…
