Product code: WW2 2024 Front Seamed Swivel Bale M1 Helmet
This is an original ww2 made M1 with an incomplete yet matching liner. McCord made, heatstamped 1013H indicating it was made around September of 1944. It has at some point been repainted, I am not sure what exactly gives it the texture seen, however it is definitely not the corked finish of a ww2 pot or the sandy/silicate of a vietnam repaint. There are no stress cracks that I've seen, there are a few very minor dents. The liner's webbing is dry, no rips as 2024 far as I can see, however is unfit for wear. The decal on the side is the Silver Lion of the 68th armored regiment. There is a minor crack along the rim next to the decals that is roughly an inch deep. Thanks for checking out my listing, feel free to ask questions and request more photos!.
