Wartime SSh-39 Helmet?

Article about: I saw this SSh-39 helmet for sale and was wondering if the chinstrap and liner are wartime. I've seen a similar liner previously, just in different colors, but I've never a similar chinstrap

    Maybe a Finnish used helmet I have seen some in Finland before but mainly used by Home guard units because of the fear of being shot by their own guys , the liner could be a Finnish made replacement also
    I think this is the case Krad.

    I got the helmet. I'll post better photos once I receive it.

    Here are some more photos. There indeed is a new paint job on top of the factory one - most likely painted by Finns after the helmets capture. Overall a nice helmet with a rare, early liner.
