    Default m16 helmet strange lug size?

    Hi,

    I just purchased an m16 helmet.
    Only i was wondering why it has the wrong lug size on it, the steps seem too large for a size 64, but should be on a size 62 i think.
    I know the leather band and chinstrap are probably very fake, so no surprise there.
    Not an expensive piece so i'd figured it was worth a shot.

    What are your thoughts on this helmet?

    The patina on the lugs does not seem to match that of the shell. The shell is clearly pitted. It might be that it was a fairly nice relic and that the lugs have been replaced in recent years. At the right price, it is a pretty nice shell never the less. Jim G.

    What would you consider this to be worth? Thanks for the reply by the way.

    I agree with Jim, the lugs are for a size 62 shell and were added much later
