garrettbragg12 Posted July 12, 2019 Share #1 Posted July 12, 2019 Just wanted to get some opinions on a local M38 tanker helmet. Looks a little different than others I’ve seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodes Posted July 12, 2019 Share #2 Posted July 12, 2019 I don't see a manufacturer's name or size marking stamped inside.....Inside where the ear holes are look different than mine.....Mine are slotted holes.....Perhaps a foreign manufactured or used tanker helmet....Bodes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wake1941 Posted July 12, 2019 Share #4 Posted July 12, 2019 Yup its a euro clone, might even be German. US troops did use some of these in the 50s in Germany. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garrettbragg12 Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share #5 Posted July 12, 2019 After doing some research, I figured it was a west German made helmet, due to the crossed straps for the ear piece and lack of vent holes. Thanks for the quick response! Would it be worth $75 for the set? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtdorango Posted July 12, 2019 Share #6 Posted July 12, 2019 I would definitely buy it for $75 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundance Posted July 12, 2019 Share #7 Posted July 12, 2019 I agree - I'd take it for $75. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wake1941 Posted July 12, 2019 Share #8 Posted July 12, 2019 I would say these are pretty tough to find but not as valuable. Definitely a solid deal for $75 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
