Up for sale is an original WW2 dated M1 front seam helmet (MCord 151B) which would put this around March of 1942.... Which would mean this should be a fixed bale but unfortunately is not! So either they were experimenting with the swivel bales in early 1942 or the bales broke off and they replaced them with swivels later on. The heet stencils were done by me about a year ago.
The helmet net is original (someone told me British made) but I have no way to validate that claim nor am I going to marl it up even more on the idea it might be a \"rare British made original helmet net\". But it is an original I picked up for a collector a few years back.
The Helmet liner is sort of original?? It\'s an ATF Grade 2 restored paratrooper liner. So it\'s an original but with modern reproduction parts in it!
The first aid pouch is reproduction from ATF.
Any questions please feel free to ask.
