which repro?

[kiler]

Vit Zemanek on eBay sells original German re-issue black shells and the M42s are the cheapest- good range of sizes and ORIGINAL. Continental Militaria is his eBay shop.

This black ones were used postwar by Czech firefighters. The shells are usually in a very good condition and both M40 and M42 models but with exchanged liner. Prices vary from 48£ to 60£ here in Poland (I managed to buy M42 shell for 46£ on a flea market).

These are the Indian made ones. Good quailty shells as far as the FJ lids go but people say the liners could be better. They are available from a UK based company on UK EBay. Not sure how they compare price wise, could save on shipping though.

I got an M35 from Medieval Arms on Ebay for £39 (also at http://www.medieval-arms.co.uk). So, what's it like? Well, the liner is not up to much - the leather is a bit spongey and would need to be replaced. However, the main problem is the size. I have a size 58 head, so I thought the size 58 M35 would be just the ticket. However, as the attached pics show (slightly pixelated so as not to scare the children...), a bigger size was probably a good idea! If I can't get a bigger size from these guys (their M40 comes in Size 60 - so maybe that will fit!!!), I think Thomas from Zeugmeister could well be getting a call - his repros look pretty good.
