Is this the real deal? US ww2 helmet

[Mountaineer]

$50 is a good price for the set. I'd buy it.

Thanks for all the replies! Its amazing what details you guys can spot on these old helmets. Very impressive.

To give you an update, I got the helmet. The pot itself seems pretty standard. Front seam, swivel bale.

Just wanted to see if you guys could ID some other markings.

Pic 1 - Whats with the missing paint? markings of painted rank worn away? big ol scratch?

Pic 2 - I couldnt find this manufacters marking anywhere. It either reads "CMC 61" or "GMC 61"

Pic 3 - 2 different colours of olive drab webbing??

the mark to the front looks just to be a big chuck of paint scratched off, cant tell you anything about the makers mark in the liner i haven't got round to researching post war liners yet but i can tell you is the liner sweatband is off WW2 production

50$ for that, excellent buy although Nick is right, liner is korean war era and helmet is a reissue from ww2.
