Great video, I am a helmet collector also but not as sharp as you with the model variants and years, 😆 I guess you got the Fedayeen helmet after the making of this video.
No, I don't have the code. You'll have to do some research on your own. Just letting you know, repros are nothing like the originals. There is not one single Chinese repro that comes close to an original WW2 shell unfortunately.
Get a Finnish M40, they cost less than most reproductions, and were made in the same factories and to the same specifications as the helmets of old (albeit most of them postwar). The only visible difference would be the holes drilled in them for the Finnish liners. If you're lucky, you could even snag an original wartime shell, or one with a more traditional liner configuration.
Yeah.....I don't have an original UK one....I was going for the design itself......If you want to get super technical, the German helmet I have in the original 3 is actually an M1917, OH THE HUMANITY!
....... I have one now, but out of ALL the fucking helmets I showed in this video, you focus on one that I didn't have at the time..... Jesus Christ.....

Ì ordered an repro German helmet from Ebay @ £40. Want your advice on painting German Grey, do you have the paint code?
No, I don't have the code. You'll have to do some research on your own. Just letting you know, repros are nothing like the originals. There is not one single Chinese repro that comes close to an original WW2 shell unfortunately.
@@MikeB128 Cheers, thankyou
