Soviet SSh40, brown linerpads, LMZ, good?

[michelwijnand]

I just got this helmet in, and many details seem to match another helmet with brown liner I saw on Warrelics IIRC, which was deemed correct, but still I'd like to see if this one corresponds to that.

It looks like it was painted over at some point, and received a white bar in the front, and also some white on the back.
The stamp looks like it's from the Lisva factory in 1944, and the brown liner pads have 2 different patterns on them, both of which at least appeared in the war.
The verical metal strip holding the chinstrap ring is pinned behind the horizontal liner strip, like wartime and close postwar ones.

Also, does anyone know what the white parts (could) mean?












Cheers,
Michel

Thanks, I know that website, but it lists only very basic details, not much about actually identifying correct WW2 details

I have a '56 dated helmet that has a brown liner like the single pad with the design in your helmet.

The helmet has been ID-d as correct on Warrelics a while back now, another 2 like mine have been seen there too. Thanks anyway guys!
