Painting M1C Paratrooper Helmet

This paratrooper helmet is painted using a paint based on the shade used by the American army between 1936 and 1944. It has a matte finish that will tend to become satin with time and wear, just like the original helmets.

Texture M1C Paratrooper Helmet

The M1C paratrooper helmet is coated with a "cork" texture to closely match the original models. This coating was used to break up the soldier's silhouette and reduce sun glare.

Chinstrap M1C Paratrooper Helmet

The helmet chinstrap is a paratrooper reproduction made by Mon Casque M1 with woven strap copied from the original model. It also has snap buttons at the ends for attachment to the liner. The metal hardware is post-war military issue.

M1C Paratrooper Helmet

The M1C helmet is a crucial component for paratroopers. It shields them from debris, sunlight, and rain. In everyday life, it serves as a basin for shaving or a cooking pot in difficult times.

A bit of history

In this American factory, thousands of M1 helmets were pressed, inspected, and painted to equip the Allied forces. A symbol of American industrial ingenuity, the M1 helmet was mass-produced starting in 1941, combining manganese steel and technical innovation. This video demonstrates the intensity of the war effort mobilized on American soil.

Excellent

Le casque est d'une reproduction parfaite a l'identique (de mon avis), la taille est juste, les sangles sont solides. Rien de mal jusqu'ici, donc je conseille fortement.
