For reference, a faked Navy G Date was picked apart on Jan's forum some time ago, with good comparison photos...

I'm no expert, but I'd expect the spare mag to have a "+" ? And, the stick eagles look different (right one looks wider?) (edit: and as Tom points out in the post below, stick eages are not correct for G Dates)

The eagle over m on the strap doesn't look good.

Looking forward to the expert opinions... I'm always learning too.
