Now I think you finally "jumped the shark" Full dusclousure,it's my lid.Ive sent them back before,this one has a lifetime guarantee from a honorable seller.This one I won't be sending back.I listed the reasons why I like it on GHW in hand.
This is by no means another "exotic freshy" I think it wasn't stored in a temp controlled environment,I don't believe it's "snow" and the wire exhibits bits of the camo.The liner may have been replaced( pins aren't bent though)
It's fine though,some may like it,some may not.I think you missed some things that favor it's real but to each his own.
The only thing that can convince me M45 is 100% correct all the time is he is going to have video proof or photos showing he made all these helmets he picked out and call our bluff !! Camo's aren't enough now we are going after period overpaints and rough re-issues.
I stated what I didn't care for on this helmet based off other examples I have seen and owned. He actually thought the same thing. Straight liner pins are no guarantee the liner wasn't swapped. But, I digress he's an adult and he bought the helmet and if he's happy with it that's all that really matters.
