Finnish used M17?

[AxelSomething]

Hi, this just arrived. Are there any red flags? Thank in advance.

No red flags here on the contrary. Very nice Austrian M17 probably used by Finland during the Winter war period & refurbished with typical components afterwards.

Finnish used helmet, Refurbished after-war in 1950-ties. With Finnish made leather liner.

5-pin holes is trademark of Finnish refurbished helmets in all German style helmets.

For everyone pleasure, a Finnish infantry squad 1941.
A wonderful example of the variety of helmets used then.

A nice complete helmet!

Hard to read the manufacturers mark due to the thick paint, but looks like it might be:

AW? A. Westen Cilli (Celie Slovenia) (1)

Or MW? Manfred Weiss, Csepel Budapest (Csepel is it a industrial zone of Budapest) (4)
