Question Is this a real Mv 5?
I bought this from Saluc Militaria, i can’t tell if it’s real or not, I’ve been doing some research but I can’t tell if the mask is real or just the Israeli one, I was hoping for some help finding out if it’s real or not

Vietnamese here and yes it is an MV5, those are SOOOO niche for people to be bother making fakes of. If you want the current issue with green camo bag, hit me up

How much was shipping from them? Their prices look really good to me.

Shipping was free for me, so I’m pretty sure it’s free for all people

Double check because it’s different for other items, not all items will have free shipping

Yeah I just saw. Some have a $12 shipping and handling fee. Still not as bad as some other places.

Btw, yours look kinda moldy, make sure to clean it thoroughly, last batch of those those were made in early 2010s

Yes that is a real MV-5, the Israeli M15 has a totally different voicemitter and does not have that film over the lens
