Howdy,
Just in the process of making my marine uniform (currently putting patches on bdu's at the mo) in the hopes that I'll have somthing reasonably respectable when I drop in to say Hi at AE in october!
Anyhow to get to the point I've just started pricing up and making enquiries re armour, I'm currently away on holiday in Penzance when I walk into an antique shop and there in front of me is a very reasonbly priced genuine vietnam era steel pot which I try on and fits perfect. I'm tempted to pick it up for my uniform and converting it but was wondering if you folks with more experience would recomend this or whether id be saving a lot of hassle by paying more for one of the kits out there?
Would appreciate your input
