picked up this replacement chinstrap for my 1983 dated ground troops m1 this upgrade replaced the t1 hook and claw chinstrap and was the final version before the pasgt's introduction of which it looks very similar ,in my opinion its very close in design to the vietnam m1c too,well i havent fully commited to the upgrade as i cant bare to cut the original stitched on straps off so im leaving them in place on the bails im now wondering how this liner managed to dodge the upgrade back in the day ,in case your wondering why this m1 is fitted with the fall side of the mitchell cover ,southern comfort was one of my favorite films as a small child the drink became a favorite later on these upgrades can also be found on the m1 euroclones ,i can bring to mind the danish m48 as an example on a side note the shell i later found out was a reissued ww2 period schlueter
