@@andrewthacker114 Type 14 pistols are not the rarest guns on the market as they did make 400,000 of them in all, compared to other handguns during WWII though they are more uncommon to find. For example though you can find a good number of them on GunBroker for sale.

@ interesting, thanks

@@facundoarellano-ie4bp If your looking to sell it I would say it would be best to sell on eBay or possibly a facebook group of military equipment. As for me I’m happy as is with my example.

@@WarTalks If you want, I'll give you a photo of the state it is in. I'm very sorry for the people who died in that war, but I have a piece of yours, and I wanted to return it to you.

⁠@@facundoarellano-ie4bpAs of now I am not in need of another one of these. Those who fought in that war and layed down their lives were very much so the greatest generation. I’m sure though that someone else would be very happy to purchase it.

@@aceofthewest5884 I’m sure there is somewhere or some way to do so, I just don’t know where to look for it since.

@WarTalks thanks, I’m just curious to see if I can get it to work

@@oddone1316 I’ve seen them with or with ought, usually I see them with no hole. So from my experience the holes are a later addition or just not as common of one. You can find them with a badge at times, but it’s definitely more uncommon for them to have a badge hole than no hole.

@@shadow_operator3735 I’m not sure I’ve actually ever seen a copy of this kind of uniform. The best idea for getting a replica of this uniform would be to convert another uniform like a surplus Swedish uniform and get some other East German surplus parts to create a replica.

@@WarTalks ohhhh okie thank u!!!

@@henry7434 Usually if the shell case it’s self is inert of course there will be no powder in the casing and the primer will either be shot off, disabled usually with an oil or something similar, or just completely removed. When it comes to the shell head itself some sells will have a threaded base allowing access to the inside or the fuse is able to be removed also allowing access. Though unless you already know that the item is safe or a seller has told you prior, I would not try and mess with it and take it to an expert to be deactivated if you are unsure of its safety.

I forgot to ask the buyer when i buy it. It is first time I buy these stuff. The primer is removed from the case and the fuse nose is missing as well.

There is a tiny hole in back of the case shell and small hole in the projectile head. I got it from militaria show today. I don’t know what to do with it😢

@@henry7434 Well with there being no primer or fuse, and it being purchased from a seller I would say it would be more likely to be inert.

@@henry7434 That’s fairly standard, that’s an indication that it was drilled in order to be made inert. That can be seen in a large variety of sizes from a pinhole to a large section taken out of the shell or case.

@@MVD-MVD I got this example of off EBay.

@@WarTalks thanks

Yes, I can get you the dimensions later today. Do you need just the shell head or the shell case as well?

The glass mines were fairly common in France, and the reason the 3rd division is suspected is due to this item along with others being dug up from their positions as this item was found near other items used by that division such as paratrooper helmets which would most likely link it to them.

I do definitely think it’s possible especially with examples in this kind of condition, I have seen examples of people taking their Russian tanker helmets from the 70s and getting the headsets to run audio through them.

@@WarTalks Thanks for the response! Any chance you got a link to those examples? I want to see if I can use a T56-6 for airsoft (terrible decision, I know)

@@OmarMorales-d4l here’s the link to the video which shows how they connected a Russian tanker helmet to audio, I’m not so sure it would work exactly the same as this kind of helmet but it gives an idea of what can be done. ua-cam.com/video/P0JN36Ty43w/v-deo.htmlsi=1c8kez2tSDIekPIs

​@@WarTalks Interesting Thanks for the help

You’re very welcome, hopefully this helps with your project.

@@WarTalks never knew it was that hard to replicate it 😔

@@AHB23Gtag I get these items from Relics From The Front, they’re a UK based company.

@@WarTalks thanks I was currently watching a video about people talking about at the front and it’s so cool that you answered in 3 mins

Also do you know any good place to get good refurbished ww1 helmets or replicas?

@@AHB23Gtag Yea, I always try and answer people’s questions to the best of my ability and as fast as I can.

Ok cool

That’s my whole goal.

This is some great info, however, what exactly is a 1 and 2 sized for? Online size 2s are usually listed as 58cm max. Which isn’t that large at least in the US or Europe. Is 58 really as big as they get?

@@Rokaize The small helmets are generally for women while the big ones are generally for men. I'm not exactly sure how big the helmets are in cm but it's kinda like a one size fits all situation. If you're a woman you get a small helmet. If you're a man you get a big helmet.

That’s really cool, I do have a lend lease part but it’s just a small piece from a Sherman tank.

This one and most of the other Eastern Front relic helmets I had purchased came from The Stalingrad Front a seller out in Russia.

@@WarTalks wow, it's amazing that they came from there to your collection, they are really significant from a historical point of view, these things that the fighters wore caught the turning point of the war - the winter of 1942 , and now you have them , sometimes the fate of military relics strikes

@@WarTalks I also have one helmet - the M-40 of the Wehrmacht in very good condition, it has only superficial rust on it and it has not yet been cleaned to leave the charm of history, it was found on rocks on the border with Norway, it is covered in shrapnel wounds and slightly torn, plus it burned since the impact it was accurate according to the positions of the Germans , there is not a single fistula on it , this item is very dear to me and it is priceless for me , since there are very few helmets in this condition , I would take a review on it , on my channel , I also search for WW-2 and shoot it on UA-cam I also wanted to add that in those places there was a fierce defense of the Arctic Circle of the city of Murmansk with 1941 to 1944

The helmet shell weighs around 2 1/4 lbs and the liner is about 1/4 lbs. When compared to a German M42 helmet it is 3lbs so about a 1/2lbs difference. Though I no longer have my Adrian helmet anymore I can’t get its exact weight.

Ty

If yours has four bumps that would make it a TSh-4M (Second Model) meaning it would have been produced after 1972 until the next model would come out. If you’re not sure exactly the country the markings are the easiest way to differentiate them. Here’s the link that I use for information on this kind of tanker helmet: equipment.fandom.com/wiki/TSh-4

​@@WarTalks The 4 rib helmets started being made by 1964, they were seen in use during Operation Danube

@@kaptainkrafter4130 interesting most of the information I have seen all has said 1972 was the year the swap was made.

@@WarTalks I've seen stuff like that too, but there's a whole lot of info to support that they've been used since the late 60s. I've seen photos from Czechoslovakia, photos of Soviet soldiers serving elsewhere wearing 60s uniforms, and listings of 4 rib tank helmets dated as early as 1968. Edit: also I don't trust the wiki page for the TSh-4, it's pretty inaccurate

@@kaptainkrafter4130yea the only thing I’ve used from that website it to get an understanding of the date swaps because there’s not a whole lot of sources that talk about it, but thanks for the information always good to learn.

From what I remember from the sources I have seen, the point of that streak was to protect the main layer of paint when in storage. Though information is pretty scarce on it, that seems to be the most likely purpose for it. I don’t see it on all helmets but it’s certainly not a rare feature.

I’m not really sure to be honest. I’m not really someone who looks much into the helmet manufacturers too much. My best guess is that the machines used by each manufacturer may have had slight differences leading to slightly altered shapes, such as how M1 Schlueters and McCords have a slightly different shape.

Thanks for the info, I was pretty sure it was a Chinese manufactured tanker helmet based on what I could find photo wise but I couldn’t find any solid resources to back it up, so the clarification is a big help. I was also unsure of the throat mic, because at first that’s what I thought it was but it can’t fit around the foam head so I wasn’t sure what it was, so one again big help there. I’ve been trying to get one of the Russian manufactured Iraqi used example but they don’t come up on the market as often, but I’m hoping to get one in soon.

nice to see you here

I wasn’t originally going to have the title have Vietnam era or anything in it, as I felt as being made in 1974 it wouldn’t have seen the war but technically it is right to have it.

@@WarTalks just an example! The more context the easier it is to find on youtube. Great stuff!

Sorry, this item is not for sale.

@@WarTalks oh sad

From what I can find on this topic, the early M1 helmets were made with stainless steel rims due to their non-magnetic properties in order not to interfere with other equipment such as compasses for example. As to the seam being on the front it seems there is varying opinions on why it was placed on the front and later moved to the back so I can’t give a conclusive explanation to that question. If you want to see what some people think I’ll point you towards this discussion board on the topic, www.warrelics.eu/forum/us-m1-steel-helmet-forum/whats-difference-between-rear-seam-front-seam-m1-helmets-681036/
