    As a WWII reenactor myself, please do understand this: any reproduction from WHATPRICEGLORY, is going to be EXACT. I mean EXACT. I have never bought any brittish stuff from them, but all reproductions these days made by high quality companys like WPG are probably 99% accurate, they have. I am sure, unless they are some sort of reenactor or military clothing enthusiast, a real member of the black watch wouldn't be able to tell WPG's apart from a "real" one. Trust me on this, if there is one thing all reenactors are anal about, it's authenticity.
    Simple things like the wrong fabric can lead to the labeling of one company as "farby" (a reenacting term for "fake looking," not authentic.)
