This one will be my sixth complete example...I better stop and let someone else have a go at one.

This one has lots of old spiderwebs inside so I know this liner has been in it for a while.
A few years ago I put a repeating ad in some of the local buy and sell publications here in central Alberta offering cash for unwanted military items. Since then I average about three to four calls a month for all sorts of things that people are on the verge of throwing out. The majority of the calls are for helmets but I did get a call to remove an old APC that didn't run anymore and was half buried in a manure pile. I passed that one to another collector who had the means to deal with it.
For some reason there seems to be an abundance of MkII's around lately. Most have no liners or chinstraps...and of course, none have flashes that would make a really good find. Some are named though. And every once in a while a MkIII pops up...and with a liner and strap

...I just can't say no.
