Hi,

I am in need of a m-42 Talon zipper for an original 40's first pattern US navy zip deck jacket!
The male side of the zipper is in perfect condition! I just need to replace the box and slide side.
Where to find this in navy color?
I now of MASH Japan that has one but I thought I 'd ask you gentlemen first.

Cheers Joakim

Hi,

Ordered a nos Talon m-42 navy coloured zipper fr.o.m. MASH JAPAN! Lucky me they had one left! Will post pictures when replaced. It is in an amazing condition for the rare first pattern zip deck jacket!

Cheers Joakim

Did you ever get it replaced, Joakim @wild_balls? Look forward to seeing it and the jacket! I bet it's awesome.

I purchased the NOS black tape (dyed) Talon M-42 from MASH a few days ago. I want to replace the repro Talon M-42 on my Pike Bros on my US Navy zip deck jacket.
