All items are near excellent overall, showing some color fading and minor fraying on the edges of some items. There is a small rip in the crouch area of the trousers which is nicely repaired and not noticeable. The equipment is all serviceable, and the practice bayonet, of which examples are usually found damaged, is excellent. The training rifle is excellent original as well.
