Not bad, though the near-glossy color is totally unrealistic. Anyway, it's only a reproduction of a helmet that still can be found, even if it's more and more expensive. Don't forget that, though many were lost or destroyed, more than 30 millions m 1935, 1940 and 1942 were made. In my opinion, any reproduction of this helmet, as good as it can be, is worthless, only good for reenactment

It always amazes me... How people blame the gun... When it's their fault, it's not running correctly 🤦♂️ You need to change the stock spring, if you want to shoot weak azz bird shot through these...even the "genuine" m4 can't run BS, without the spring change. That said... Who buys a combat style shoty and shoot birds with it 🤷♂️
@grandpaweber209710 ай бұрын
A little late to the party, here, but let me chime in. The 1st thing I did with my Panzer M4 was read the Owner's manual where it clearly says to break in the gas system with 100 high brass shells. I used the very same Italian ammo you did. At the end of this butt-whipping :) my M4 would, and does, feed fire and extract everything I load in it, down to that crappy Walmart red-hulled skeet shot. I often will mix the rounds in the tube, buck, slug and skeet and the M4 eats it all. 100% reliable and fun to shoot.

Look up the video about the argo gas system. In the Benelli m4 owner's manual it explicitly reads over 8 times to NOT use lubricant on the gas systems/pistons or get them wet. They soak them in the factory for transportation/long-term storage purposes. There is a few videos about this. Worth a look into for functionality/feeding issues 🤷. Clean that up and dry it up, then try her out. 😁😁

If you ever want to "age" your helmet liner don't use WD40 or gun oil, use avocado oil, no smell and it works just as well. In 1940 helmet makers were required to paint the helmets with paint containing aluminum oxide to give them a rougher less light-reflective finish, the M35s were repainted at that time. So if you want to repaint your M35 you can buy powdered aluminum oxide to mix in the paint field gray paint that was used in 1940 and after.

The reproduction helmets always get the skirt and flair wrong, the skirt is always short on repos, some worse than others, but this ima one is a bit better, when I was younger I used to wonder where the film makers got their helmets, thinking they were real, cross of iron, Stalingrad etc, but now I can clearly see that they are replica, just by the skirting alone because the genuine German helmets perfect in shape, and especially the M42 helmets, which when I was younger I didn't know there was a m35, M40, M42, I just thought they were all the same, but thankfully because of internet we know a lot more, I'm 61 and grew up having to use the exchange and mart, back in the day when you could get an iron cross 1st class for £40, or a k98 bayonet for £18, but nowadays the militaria collecting world is ruined by greed, everything is out of the normal guy's price range, and especially German helmets, they're even selling bits of rusted helmet skirt, commanding £7\8 hundred for a so called original Normandy camo helmet, which always have the REPO, liners and chinstraps, basically an original shell painted and aged and repo liner, but the sad thing is that people, especially the younger generation of collectors are paying these prices and getting stung, and the information is here on the internet, I wish we had internet when I was growing up, the world's you're oyster nowadays, for ANYTHING, including information on the fake militaria etc, but like I said the ima repo is the best I've seen so far, good luck with your collecting mate, now maybe with you tube you may be able to buy a real one soon.
