Cheers Jareth, I wondered about this one. Army liner or aged?

To me the rust inside looks too fresh. I would have thought it would have darkened/ blued after 70 years. Am I barking up the wrong tree?

Can we PLEASE get an explanation WHY?
I hear often that things are fake, but no one cares to spend a minute to explain in detail why.
