The Rooster Posted July 8, 2020 Share #1 Posted July 8, 2020 Greetings all Here is a nice WW2 lid I picked up today. Not sure what I think about the lieutenant bar and I have no other pics of it than what I've posted here, but Overall, so far, I like it. That might change when I get it but I like it. Its got odd looking paint on the outside. Almost cammo looking ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rooster Posted July 8, 2020 Author Share #3 Posted July 8, 2020 Thank you Dean! I get the feeling that butter Bar is the work of a faker. But I dont know. It just looks too fresh. But I like the rest of it. I'l post more pics when I get it in. Strange Paint ??? Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmd62 Posted July 8, 2020 Share #4 Posted July 8, 2020 Great looking helmet Dave! I'm looking forward to more pics and comments on the paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rooster Posted July 9, 2020 Author Share #5 Posted July 9, 2020 Im wondering about the paint. I'l take some pics in the sunlight when it comes in... Anyone can throw a net on a helmet. Anyone can paint a butterbar on the front. Looks too fresh to me. But that paint overall... Has anyone seen one like it? it looks like Cammo ?

dmar836 Posted July 9, 2020 Share #6 Posted July 9, 2020 I would share your concerns. Camo looks very evenly and consistently knocked down to me from those pics. Is that paint on the strap? JMO, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I noticed that spot that looks like paint on the strap. The liner webbing looks awfully clean as well. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rooster Posted July 14, 2020 Author Share #11 Posted July 14, 2020 Anyone have any comments on the cammo paint on this one ? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rooster Posted July 14, 2020 Author Share #12 Posted July 14, 2020 I asked Scott (Bugme) to take a look at this and I thought the butter bar was fake. But scott said the cammo paint job is too. I didnt spend too much so I dont feel to bad about it. I think the net is real? Hopefully lol and I like the liner. I think its a not too expensive lesson learned. The net and the cammo paint is what sucked me in. Rookie mistake. And it was on the cheap side to ! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
