The collar size the thicker sheepskin and see the wind flap?
My guess is M 445. Not B6 or B-3

That was my first guess but the 445 doesn't have collar straps does it?

Then I posted here and got a few reasons why it's a B3. Would love and hate to find out I was correct the first time. But hey, let us get to the bottom of this.

I don't think I am wrong. Collar size, wind flap with sheepskin and sheepskin depth are wrong for B-6. I really believe it is an M-445.

I think you're / we're right, and I'm a little embarrassed that I turned so quickly After a little more poking around he appears to be wearing the
