GetM1ForTheRoad™ Here at \'Get M1 For The Road\', we\'re big fans of ALL things M1 helmet related! Lately we\'ve found ourselves with too many M1 items and not enough free space, so it\'s time to thin the herd a bit. Our loss is your gain! Up for grabs - right here, right now, right away -is an ISRAELI \"Kasdah\"helmet (which is based on the iconic American M1) from the 1980\'s.Further details are listed below:Details:This helmet is complete, but it\'s of \"mixed origins\". Without further adieu, here are all of the details:IN GENERAL:I\'ve had the liner (hardhat) and shell (lid/steel pot) for awhile, but I\'m trying to trim the fat abit.I\'m selling them both together as a set and I\'m pretty sure that\'s how I bought them - way back when.LINER: This one is an orange vinyl version made in the 80\'s, but I can\'t find any maker marks on it. The Tama company usually put marks on the underside of the brim and the inside of the crown. The headband has some Hebrew writing on it and the suspension is marked in Hebrew. I took some pics, but the writing and stamps are worn quite a bit. I think that I see \'1983\' on a stamp, though.There are no cracks to the nylon and the paint is still pretty good (aside from a little wear and a \'blob\' near the top). The \'A washers\' have a little tarnish, but the suspension isn\'t ripped at all. The leather headband is in good shape, too. Oddly, there are two small holes drilled into either side of the liner. They\'re about the same diameter as a large paperclip.
SHELL: This one was made in a different country and is a \"Euro-clone\". For many years, Israel bought up surplus M1s from other countries, as it was cheaper than making new ones themselves. They were usually \'fixed up\' a bit, before being issued. This one is Danish (I think) and appears to have had some cracking, rust, and pitting - but then was repainted. The \'new\' paint is in pretty good shape, however. The shade of greenish-grey paint nearly matches the liner, but in the pics the liner appears to be much darker than the shell for some reason. The chin straps are present and in good shape.This guy\'s been through some stuff, no doubt. I can\'t say for SURE that it was used in battle, but it definitely COULD have been.
IN CONCLUSION: It\'s in good shape and there\'s nothing broken (like the webbing, rim, or bales). There is noticeable (painted over) pitting on the inside and outside - all of which you can see in the pics. It\'s \'been there\', so please look carefully at all of the photos before you even THINK about buying - I don\'t do refunds.NOTE:I usually have a number of other items listed as well. I WILL put together bundle deals to save you money. Just let me know before buying. Also, I have a few spare (post-WWII) M1 parts, so just ask if you\'re looking for anything in take a look at the pics and item specifics for any other information you may require.
