    Default M42 Helmet

    I was fortunate yesterday to acquire a late war example of a M42 lightweight parade helmet. It appears to have a camouflage paint finish as the original color can be seen underneath. It seems to be made from a composite material. The spiders seem to like it.

    Not sure what it could have been made for, possibly a movie prop.
    I am in agreement with Gunny though, definitely a fake.
