I have just received my fabulous M51 Parka that I purchased from Vintage Trends (see their post and link on our site). Although they are based in California, the Parka was a very good price, and only took 6 days to get to me. They provide an excellent service, and Greg will be happy to talk to you about your requirement. They have a good range of all things military, Parkas, Field Jackets, MA-1 Flying Jackets and a whole lot more, it’s well worth a look, I have my eye on a nice original MA-1 Flying Jacket.
I have included a couple of pics of my Parka so you can get an idea of the quality they supply.
Wow nice parka. First time l have seen nylon mention on an M-51. .
You are pot on about Greg , he is a great help and I’m sure you’ll be pleased with the MA-1 when you get it
hi ive been looking for one and no luck and the website mentioned not recognised
Hi, yes I think the site has gone, which is a shame as they had some nice things on there. I did buy my parka a few years ago, they do sometimes appear on eBay, but are normally quite expensive.
Have you looked at Fishtail Parkas, as they sometimes have them.
Good luck in you hunt.
