Re: M42 camo ? opinions
Yep i really like the camo colouring and the general wear
The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )
1st July 1916
Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings

Re: M42 camo ? opinions
Thanks all for comments. I appreciate it.
One more quick question.......... Is there any way to determine the size of the helmet from the stamping numbers above ? I would maybe like to get a liner and chin strap for it some time in the future.
Your help greatly appreciated

Hi Brumbar !
You probably already know that original liners, straps and pins
can be found, which is the way you would want to go, I imagine.
Hope you show us the result when it's done ! !
"64" should be the size of the shell as indicated,
so head size would be a 56 or 57, I think ......................
Regards,
Steve.

It might be expensive: ($300 or $400 ) but the helmet
would be that much better !
You should "antique" the split-pin heads as well to
match the overall colour of the helmet.
