This is in reply to Ty Smith's query,
My two Q helmets are definitely re-issues as they have been repainted,most likely in the field( one with a camo finish,the other in a slightly lighter color) as is apparent due to the inside of both helmets still retaining the original "pea green" factory finish. I purchased them both many moons ago from an older private collector. One came with an type A Oak camo cover, but most likely not original to the helmet. Sorry that I cannot provide any pics as I don't own a digital camera-still living in the stone age you see!
But rest assured, I will sleep better now, thanks to your information! Danke. Auf wieder sehen!
