Hi buddies, a doubt on a label I've seen in a helmet M�34 has emerged me also I see that is common, resulting in some helmets M�34 Germans have in their side inside his wing registration EDELSTAHL which translated literally means "stainless steel "because my question is this, is it not all M�34 helmets were made of lightweight aluminum? If someone could solventar this doubt would be grateful, friendly greeting colleagues.

I did some research and apparently they do exist. Do you have better pics of the decals?

You know what I think? That German helmets M� marking 34 having at its inner side EDELSTAHL are actually steel, as I have had others in my hands and have found that having a EDELSTAHL in my hands is heavier than others I have had made of lightweight aluminum with another type of marking, that is what I truly believe, I am convinced of this and apparently there is no data on this, therefore it must be so.
