The flashlight is of good quality, consisting of a brass tube body and cast zinc head, both painted a pleasing shade of olive drab. The switch assembly, lens bezel, and battery cap are also of stamped sheet brass, albeit painted black. The only steel components are the clip, and the folding hang loop on the cap. All components are well-finished and seem robust. One thing to note. I am unsure if this is a peculiarity of my example, but I had to install the batteries reversed compared to what I am used to with other flashlights. Instead of putting the batteries in negative terminal toward the spring in the cap, they had to be put in with the positive terminal toward the spring. My flashlight did not work at all with the batteries installed opposite to what I described. Overall, I am very satisfied, and can see this item lasting a long time.

Good looking item. Good price. Looks pretty darn close to original except the bottom. Close enough for what need. Had to fine tune battery/switch connections, No problem. Got to rough it up some now to look used.
