Nice helmet,   Here is my Feuerwehr Helmet with aluminum comb and leather neck guard for comparison. The neck guards are some of the more difficult pieces to find. Chinstrap on mine is the only thing that is not intact.    Leigh 

Nice helmet.    This is a Feuerwehr (FW) helmet designed for the fire fighter.  Notice the Police eagle decal has the bright edging on the shield decal where the Polizei helmet typically does not.  The liner is also designed for firemen, made with leather tabs to attach the leather neck shield to keep the water and fire debris from entering the collar.  It also has the leather pad in the crown of the helmet to cushion headaches from falling debris. One will also find these FW helmets with a bright metal fin on the top for supervisors.      

My understanding is that if it had a SN and the SN was removed, the gun is illegal. If it was manufactured without a SN then it is legal. 

Just picked up a WWI era Walther model 4 pistol, funny thing is that there are no serial numbers..

Ogefr is Obergefreiter = Corporal. Nice helmet.

an all original very decent Police helmet (very common) that came home with many vets after the war. it has the usual color, decals and liner stamped 54, in the neck guard there is a stamp that looks like a diamond shape, other then that there are no other stamping in the shell.

black paint, army decal, full liner stamped 57, chin strap, neck guard number 817, side number appears to be E164, tip chin strap dated 1941, named to ROTH-OGEFR, steel liner band date high up can't see it, stamping in dome worn very faint. THIS MY BE A REISSUED HELMET--- all 3 split pins have the washers on them before the bending back of the shafts.    

all original, gray paint, full liner 54 stamped, neck guard number D275, ND62 shell size. ink stamped in dome- hard to see. liner steel band date can't see - a very tight fit. just missing the chin strap.

Hello,   I would like your opinion on this Indian made para wings ?     Does this is a reproduction or a good ww2 indian made wings ?   Thanks

Male HJ/DJ wore gold triangles. Female BDM/JM wore the silver.

Newest additions. District Triangle patches HJ & BDM

This IMO is a fake. With the spaghetti style rest found on a lot of “rare” British SF patches.
