    Default Opinion on this luftschutz decal

    I would not usely ask opinion on a Luftschutz decal but I have been looking for a true one piece gladiator with decal for a long time now,one piece with decal are very rare.I thing the decal is good or is it just me wanting it to be real that is why I want to make sure.
    There is 2 type of fakes and this does not look like them.Opinion on this luftschutz decal-j12c_luftschutz_helm_1_014-2-.jpgOpinion on this luftschutz decal-j12c_luftschutz_helm_1_014-1-.jpg

    It looks ok I think but pics are kind of blurry, at least on a phone they are. Is that an application error on the right side on top of the wing? Lettering looks ok I think compared to the Luftshutz decal on my lid.
    Looking for:

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

    Yes it is a application error on the right side.
    the lettering looks good to me also.
    the wings also looks good to me with the gap.
    I want to make I am not missing something.

    Yes good to see the gap at the wing tip. Is it a private sale? I'd be interested to know what it's going for.

    I guess you saw all around pics also? If one pieces are rare and typical two piece goes for about $200-300, does that make this asking price a little low? Or maybe they don't know what they have? Or maybe I just have no idea lol.

    I do not like the left bottom leg under the swastica. It has a straight bar on top of it. I have not seen this before on good decals. I am also looking at the original luftschutz decals over on German Helmet Wahalla.
    The acorns aren't right either. the bottom husks are to thin. Regular ons have 5 stripes the ones on the helmet shown only have 3.
    I think the decal is a fake.
    I know you want one real bad but I don't think this one is it buddy.
