Hi Chaps. What are your honest opinions of this SD M42 SS?
Mark I hate to tell you but that is a fake Pocher decal.
Cheers Doug. I have had my suspicions for a while now. I appreciate your opinion.
Hopefully Mark you dont have much invested into it.
Hi Mark, at least your suspicions have been confirmed. Never nice to find out something is bad, but it is always best to know one way or another.
Cheers, Ade.
Cheers Chaps. I,ve been quite badly burn't these past couple of weeks. So, i need to take a deep breath and take stock of this whole collecting pastime.
Will always appreciate your knowledge. Thanks.
from now on, whenever you are considering a purchase you should get lots of good pictures of whatever it is youre buying and then post them on the forums. the people here have saved me hundreds of dollars.
Mark if your flying solo you will get shot down, you need to fly in formation and have the benefit of shared knowledge. If you ever need help on an SS helmet I am but an email or PM away. It is a rewarding pastime when you network and learn. BTW my first SS helmet was a total dud as well....any collector who can say they never bought a fake is lying through thier teeth! LOL. Part of the learning curve, dont give up.

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
