Vietnam helmet and cover verification
G'day,
I was looking around on a website and i found this American Vietnam war M1 with a cover (i've attached photos). i put them online because it was a little cheaper than what i've seen other go for so i was a bit suspicious so i thought i'd come here for a second opinion, also the chinstrap attached to the liner doesn't look like anything i've seen before. any clarification or assurance is much appreciated
Helmet shell is a australian one from June 1970.
Cover is US from Late 1964 - 1965.
Regards
Would you say it's worth buying? $140 Aud.

It's a pieced together mismatched helmet. Wait for an original.
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated
My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

Thank you! i will wait for something better to come along
Just for extra confirmation;
That's nearly £80 when £20 is a likely market price for this but as said above it's neither one or the other so I wouldn't pay anything for it unless I need parts to improve something else then I might pay £5 - 10 depending on how much I need the bits!
Regards
