    So, zigzag stitching always indicates a fake one?

    Where the rim is folded over, there is a slight groove running parallel in it where the rolling tool left a mark, fakes do NOT have this.
    Someone will post a photo showing this - once you know what it looks like it is obvious.

    For the main seam in the liner on a FJ helmet, YES.

    I found a photo - but in doing so I also read that some fake shells have this too these days ...... so that is No longer a definitive checking point and THATS why I do not have a M38 in my collection!!!

    Cheers, Dan
