M34 fake decals ?

Article about: I bought this helmet a few days ago for a low price, in fact perhaps to low to be true. I was convinced of the authenticity of the decals but looking over and over to the pictures I began to

    Frank, I know...the price in combination with the fact that the helmet was complete (130 euro) fooled me....but I could have been fooled worse I think. The quality of the picture of the eagle I posted here (with magnification here when you click on the + sign) is almost impossible to get from a dealer or someone else selling a helmet even with good intentions from the seller. And only on the magnified picture here I see the indentation of the swastica...Perhaps the fact that no one but you shared a reaction to this helmet proofs how easy people can be fooled...I guess most people could not tell if decals where fake and why...But again you are right...the price was a red flag..
    According the the helmet you mentioned above : it is not the same maker. Did makers of M34 helmets also use their own decals as their are many variations of polizei decals ? Thanks again !!!!!
    Sorry super moderator (I am very bad in memorising first names...), you posted while I was writing this one.

    There are some variations Erwin specifically found on civic shells. Some combat ones can be found on civic shells too.
    If you look at the BXF from MAP and the one on my website , they have different decals.
    I think that it is possible the decals were not factory applied.
