Lufty Q64 vs Lufty Q66

[HoundsTooth]

Thanks folks for your responses.
I was not aware that the Quist M40s changed from side to rear stamp after '43 - good info to know.

I'm still undecided on these two. I definitely would like a Quist helmet and also good second pattern bird.
The problem I have is that there are so many things I've added to my 'get' list.
I'm particularly interested in German helmets and badges - which means there are a whole lot of items out there. And they're not cheap!

I also spotted Leon's badges for sale the other day - all very nice...

My Quest for the Quist may go on for a bit longer.

The Q M40 Luft is probably the most common helmet there is. We see them in unissued condition, we see them worn heavily & everything in between. Wait for one you really like. I don't think you are too happy with either of these examples you posted. Save some $$ & get a nice one. They will always be available

Cheers David. You're right that I wasn't 100% sure. Need to be patient

As my wife says, quoting "The Lost Weekend", one is too many and a million is not enough... Buy them both if the prices are right! Just kidding, Dave has given good advice. Jim G.
