St Louis outing

I had to go to St Louis this morning to get cigarettes. As always I stopped at my favorite militaria shop, Alamo. They didn't have a whole lot in the way of ordnance but did manage to pick up this Italian WWII helmet with liner and strap, and a not the best US MKII practice thrower. This stuff was really cheap..Dano
Guess i'll be needing to get an Italian WWII grenade to compliment the helmet

looks like the top of the grenade has been broken off and reground to make it smooth, hope it was really cheap:sad:
