billmunny Posted November 2, 2022 Share #1 Posted November 2, 2022 Hello friends! I’ve had this para liner, marked Firestone, with lighter OD green webbing and darker OD green yokes and the green paint I normally associate with liners from the early 60s..any idea what the heck this is? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phantomfixer Posted November 2, 2022 Share #4 Posted November 2, 2022 the rivets, buckles and webbing on the yokes look like the P-55 Westy I posted earlier for review asking the same question... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elh1311 Posted November 2, 2022 Share #5 Posted November 2, 2022 WWII-era produced Firestone liner with a post-war Munsel green repaint. The a-yokes are late war Westinghouse style that were added either very late in the war or shortly after it ended. No one seems to quite agree on when and why these were added. They were not used during WWII though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billmunny Posted November 2, 2022 Author Share #6 Posted November 2, 2022 Thanks so much; makes sense given the colors of the webbing and yokes and overall construction..the Munsel green was used post-‘68 is that correct? I can’t recall what I paid for this thing (I know I hoped it was late war—guess I was partially right!). Any idea what ballpark such a liner would sell for?
