M-1 Helmet Complete, Reenactor: This helmet features an original steel M-1 helmet shell in G to VG condition with correct Vietnam era chinstraps. Helmet liners are late war to immediate post war in VG+ to EXC condition from the mid 1970's to early 80's. Most of the liners that we use are the earlier style removable that have / had paper labels (many are missing), some are the ink stamped liners from the early 80's. It just depends on availability.

While the liner shells are 70's era, most of the removable suspensions will be 80's dated as we have replaced the used suspensions with unissued webbing so you get a nice, strong, clean suspenion that will work well. Unissed post war nape strap is included and the sweatbands are a mix of DSA and DLA dated USGI in EXC used that have been cleaned and reconditioned or unissued post war dated. Complete with new reproduction Mitchell Cover and elastic helmet band (or USMC Inner tube band).

The perfect reenacting helmet. The only structural difference between this helmet and the other listed below is the liner hardware. A mid 70's / 80's era liner suspension has round hardware (removable suspension) as opposed to the A shaped internal washers (fixed suspension) found in a VN era liner. Once the sweatband is in place, it is difficult to see the suspension hardware. Based on this, it is the perfect reenacting helmet for those on a budget, or for those who do not want to tear up a collectible liner.
