    You were right to be wary. The decals are bad.

    Cheers, Ade.

    Agreed. It's a good shell and maybe a good liner, but hard to tell from that pic. How much they asking?
    Looking for:

    1) A court mounted EKII
    2) M42 of no collector value, bare steel if possible. Liner and liner bands not needed.

    Would be nice to have an original HJ Luftwaffe helmet. Diamond is too poorly constructed on this one.
