Hi few pics of my M40 SE62

Nice helmet. Your first ? Has it been repainted ?
Looks blue-green from the photos.........

[busman]

Not sure if repainted , the colour does look different in the pictures , they were taken on my phone, colour is more a dark greeny grey. but yeah may well of had a repaint.

[busman]

looking at it more could be blue-green. either way quite happy as not expensive and looks ok on the shelf, what post war uses had that colour scheme would be interested on ideas.

I think its definately been repainted at some time, look at the liner ring its been painted the same colour in situ with the leather removed

[Walkwolf]

Unless it was a Norwegian re-issue, or a repainted Czech or Latvian lid,
it should not have had any post-war military usage.........

Repsinted, but still a nice tidy helmet....congrats

[busman]

Thanks for that

[busman]

just noticed split pin marked mss 41 is that correct for this type, are we thinking the paint is not a period paint job but post war.

[Walkwolf]

It's possible. Hard to tell from these pics though.........
