Happy New Year - the wire is not original to the helmet - a very poor attempt to sex up a combat lid
ah what a shame. Thank you for the quick reply. I have some books on the way that I'm looking forward to reading so I can educate myself more. Thank you for checking it out !
No way is that wire 70 years old, it looks like it was fitted a few weeks ago!....
Hi, as you can see, there is no "bedding down" of the wire to the steel and the wear beneath the wire is much heavier than if it were in place at the time of use. Leon.
instead of just posting and asking, I'm trying to learn. So if it were a real wire camo helmet then the wire itself would be more imbedded to the helmet. Also it would have surface wear from where the wire rubbed against the helmet. Both of which do not do on this helmet. I also heard that European wire and western wire was different because west made wire usually reverses twist half way. Is all that right? Trying to learn haha
"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
