Original U.S. WWII McCord Front Seam Fixed Bale 90th Infantry Division M1 Helmet with Firestone Liner Category_Francotte-Martini Rifles & Parts 31-Dec-1944

31-Dec-1944

The red cloth backing is in great shape

though about 3/8 inch of the reverse grip scale is missing

which means the Charlotte World War II veteran has more good stories to tell these days than he has willing listeners

and does not have any major cracking or wear
