Fake bad liner, paint and tricolor on m42
only shell looks orginal
-
Liner is Bundeswehr ( perforated brow ) with a repaint and repro decals.The alloy liner band is strangely rivetted??? and in any case is wrong for a M42. Chinstrap also later ( flat double rivets ) ...... all in all as Helldude says, only the shell is good.

As already mentioned, this is a total post war put together item with only the metal shell being original, liner, paint, decals etc all post war and/or fake.

Hi, May I suggest that you view anything suposedly pre 1945 that bears a number 8405 12 1234567 or similar with the utmost suspision. The number that I have detailed is a NATO Codification Reference and represents 8405 (clothing) 12 (NATO country of origin code [not necessarily the country of manufacture] for the Federal Republic of Germany) and the seven digit number, often broken into 3 dash 4 digits (item specific reference number)
8110-99- UK Tyres if my memory serves me
8405-00- or 01- US and even our brothers from down under, 7105-66- Australia Barrack Equipment
Hope this is of some help for you when viewing perportedly WWII bits
Cheers Michael Ryan
