Hi,

Is this RAF D mask original ?

I would appreciate any comments.

Cheers

I would say original!

I would reserve judgement for the moment as there are some superb copies around utilising original Type 19 & 21 microphones. When I get home tonight I will post a link to an RAF site where you may get more comments. Do you have any other pics or is this on a site somewhere - better pics may help.

Thanks John

I dont have any more pics at the moment but will post some when it arrives

I recently picked it up for a pretty good price even if turns out to be a repro.The seller stated that it was possibly not original .

I have been looking for one for quite a while to go with my B helmet .
Cheers

Hi Grant,
A repro (a good repro) went on ebay about 3 weeks ago for 200 quid. It looked ok until another ebayer emailed the seller who - to his credit - posted this fact in his description - to say that it was a repro.
I also have B and an early C helmet as well as Mk3a and Mk8 goggles and a G Type mask.

Here's the link to the ebay one:
