Hi!

Actually it's 35M and not M38. M38 was used by the finnish army. Your helmet was a civil defense 'B' type fire service helmet for volunteer firemen. The siluett of the alu ridge is still visible.

its very beatiful, here where i live (Argentina) its not easy to find an Hungarian helmet of any model, a shame, cause i like the hungarian helmet, but i prefer the spanish Z-42.

Hi Guys!

This is a recent addition. One of the best hungarian helmets out there without a doubt. MAVAG62 combat helmet with original camo paint of green, brown, yellow and tan and an original wire attachment is also present. Helmet named to a certain Alberth Tari and was found in Austria.

Late war, double maker marked hungarian helmet. GY64-MAVAG64. Rarer type with GY style rear loop. Line seems to be period replaced since it's factory liner could be a late war type aswell. Retains 95% of matte, greenbrown factory paint and has been overpainted in a yellowish field green and was camoed with some grey green. Found in Austria.

Hi Mark!
Not easy to find these army green ones indeed. I use to acquire 3-8 per year and never sell any. There are some finnish M38s out there but most of these are postwar modified ufortunetly.
Cheers

Hello,
Here is one from my hungarian collection, sadly not in perfect condition.
Somewhere I read, don't know where, that this type of camouflage was used in the last part of ww2.
Maybe anyone around here can tell me more about this one.
