Original Vietnam War RJ Stampings M1 Helmet, P73 Liner, Net

Description: Get M1 For The Road™Here at 'Get M1 For The Road', we're big fans of ALL things M1 helmet related! Lately we've found ourselves with too many M1 items and not enough free space, so it's time to thin the herd a bit. Our loss is your gain! Up for grabs - right here, right now, right away - is an M1 shell from the early 70's (Vietnam War Era) and a newer liner. Further details are listed below:Details: This helmet is complete, but it's been through a lot. It's seen some action, no doubt. Without further adieu, here are all of the details:IN GENERAL: I've had the liner (hardhat) and shell (lid) for awhile, but I'm trying to trim the fat a bit. I'm selling the liner & lid together, but on top of that, I'm including a (reproduction) net and post-'73 set of chinstraps for FREE. (Both were given to me recently, but I have no use for them. However, they DO look nice on this helmet.) LINER: This one is a green vinyl version of the 'P73' model and is in pretty good overall condition. It was made by Stemaco (I assume, based on the vertical ink stamp - which is too worn to be read) between '73 and '85. There's a stamp in the crown which reads "US 78" (I think) on the top of a +. The nape strap and suspension appear to be from '85, but the PASGT headband is probably from the late 80's or early '90s.SHELL: This one was made by the RJ Stampings Co. of Canada between 1970 & 1976. The heat stamp reads '501', so it was probably manufactured in '70 or '71. I added a FREE set of (post-Vietnam) chin straps to it, just to jazz it up a bit. The shell has some rust and a number of cracks, but with the net on it, it doesn't look that bad. As I mentioned before, this guy's been through a lot. I can't say for CERTAIN that it saw action in Vietnam, but it definitely COULD have. IN CONCLUSION: It's in good shape and there's nothing broken (like the webbing or loops/bails) and there are no dents. It's 'been there', so please look carefully at all of the photos before you even THINK about buying - I don't do refunds.NOTE: I usually have a number of other items listed as well. I WILL put together bundle deals to save you money. Just let me know before buying. Also, I have a few spare (post-WWII) M1 parts, so just ask if you're looking for anything in particular.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Please take a look at the pics and item specifics for any other information you may require.
