Hi all,

I'm posting this helmet for a friend of my.
What are your opinions on this camo helmet?
The chinstrap is fake.
It looks like the liner was taken out before.

It could be the original remnants of camo as the helmet shell looks nearly ground dug condition. Liner looks to be a post-war replacement. From the pictures the whole thing looks like a post-war built piece.

Man I hate these helmets, they are on every fair, a good shell but that's all....

The paint doesn't look right to me.

I agree with Sander a post war put together .Rob.

I agree with Sander a post war put together .Rob.

All orginal ?? ( the liner , The Shell , The paint )

[ROBB]

The liner looks new and has been browned there is an Aluminium liner band round chinstrap buckles a fake chinstrap and if they are bad then I dont put much faith in the paintwork .Rob.

It's a pity that the helmet is fake. But I know these helmets are tricky ones!

Kind regards,

news from the new owner of this helmet

hey peepz.

ive bought this helmet because i liked it just the paint.the owner told me that the liner was original and the paintjob not.i bouhgt it from the internet so it was a little bit trickey.when it arrived i immidiatly saw that it isn't a dugup shell.the surface has rauwtarn and the camo paint on it looks very goed but the liner.

i messured the holes of the liner in the leather.they are not the same distance from each other..but in my other original liners they are..


the allu splitters that hold the leather are blue and white..and it has czech letters on its as you can see on the phot

there is only on thing left and thats is that the liner is a fake made czech one.

anyone has other oppinions?

regards,
