Bundeswehr M1A1? or M60?

[Danger]

Hi Guys,

I've been looking at this helmet for 4 months now.
It keeps coming up for sale with a bunch of books and WW1 field dressing.
I've offered to buy just the helmet, but they didn't like my offer.
Then I offered to buy the lot for $15 cheaper than what they offered me when it didn't sell again.
No result.
They also have some papers from WWII, they could be copies. top sheet says - If the invader comes. what to do and how to do it.

I like it, but the liner and strap are different to what I'm seeing online.
I'm beginning to think it could be a Belgian helmet and not German?

What do you think?

Cheers,

Danger

I don't know much about these helmets, you may be better posting in the World Helmets section.

This is probably the best website to check, World War Helmets - Reference de casques de 1915 a nos jours., based on what I can see it is the second one down, M60, 1A1 with a FJ60 type 2 liner.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for that mate, I think you are spot on.
Now to get my hands on the bloody thing.
Good to see it's an early one.

Cheers,
