Default Gordon Shoulder Belt Plate, Copy?

Greetings All

I am posting this for a friend for your opinions as to originality, it looks rather fresh to me, but I am certainly not an expert here.

Many thanks in advance for all comments...

Larry

Larry,

You are right to be suspicious as this is a modern fake constructed to deceive the unwary.

The item is not real.
