    No, not repro. Could have been manufactured for an Asian or even South American Army.
    It does not look European.

    FM = Fabrica Militar?

    Well the limb I went out on broke but that's ok with me. I knew the helmet was not a US helmet but the chinstrap had me leaning towards a European helmet, the Asian area did not play into my thought process. Sorry I am very little help outside of the American helmet Arena.

    no its all been a great help looks like we got there

    so it does look like an Argie made M1 by FM

    but how desirable is it?
