Dare I say it but a Russian Gorka may make a good alternative......

Sorry that's to big!

Ordered an Austrian one, they were showing one in XL, asked about size and was asked about my measurements. Unfortunately the one they had would not fit.

Pondering the Russian one...

They are good, although my Afghanka winter jacket with padded liner has been a godsend the last few days.

There are many surplus retailers selling the Austrian M65 jacket, so why not try more? I've got the gortex lined version and it's my favourite shooting jacket. I think they're cut on the large size. I normally take a 42" chest and have a medium (96-100) which fits just right.

They make very comfy winter shooting jackets :good:
I did order one from Golding Surplus but after supplying my measurements they didn't have one to fit :bad:

But I did order one of these and its excellent, I think its new!

I am 5'10" with a 46" chest and I ordered the XL and regular length and it fits a treat :good: :good:
