WW2 German m35 real or fake?

Hello all, here I have my m35 style helmet. The liner is a modern reproduction however I am unsure if the shell is postwar/ modern replica. The markings on the inside of the helmet are “64 3417 ck10g”. I have not seen any other German helmets with these markings or markings stacked like this. The markings are located on the left side of the helmet. Thank you in advance.

Fake Bavarian Shako.

A very bad fake First World War Bavarian Machine Gun crew shako. This one is one of more effortless pieces.

Kinda cringey

Phony collectors in almost every state have one of these shit post up. Why just WW2? (Because most likely war grifters and hitler ass kissers.) If you were one of these poor blokes that tried to put the spin on people on Facebook marketplace and have these really lame ad advertisement post up. The only one who sees these post are us collectors. What I see when I see these post are “I’m a scalper of ww2 items and I will scam you for a +1000 usd item and tell you I can only offer you my lunch money and a $100 dollars borrowed from my mum.”
People sorry to say this, but if you cannot afford the items that you are advertising that you could buy but cannot, then you are a scammer and you are lame. It’s Simple mathematic, make sure you have the money to afford these items instead of going to this level and falsely calling yourself a collector. You are reseller and you are a little piggy. you give all the other collectors Bad names… I put this in fake military because I believe most of us have seen these post and kind of cringe a little. (They are fake dealers/“militaria experts”) had one in my inbox exclaiming “I’m not even sure what it’s worth to be honest. I collect more US GI stuff so I’m a lot less familiar with German stuff, I don’t think I could give you an offer cause I just don’t even know where to start to be honest” so honest HE said it twice lol.
SHAME ON YOU
***DO NOT CALL YOURSELF A COLLECTOR OR “AUTHENTIC” DEALER IF YOU CANT “TELL” WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT. FRAUD/CHEATS/CHILDREN WITH POCKET MONEY HAVE NO RIGHT IN MILITARIA COLLECTING. .(***i was there to at on point as a young collector with little to no money, but I wasn’t claiming I was Mr Smithsonian.)

Honestly let’s start posting these guys to fake Militaria. I kinda believe they have the right to be here next to the fake shit.

Not Authentic, But Sourced with Love: My German Collection

​Here is my WW2-inspired German collection! While nothing here is authentic, it’s mostly a mix of Etsy and eBay finds, including a German NVA uniform paired with various historical badges that don't quite share the same timeline.

I still gave it my absolute best for this cosplay.

Please share your thoughts.

Saw this for sale as authentic at my local surplus store. An M65 in Beogam/duckhunter camo, which im almost certain the military has never produced M65s in Beogam during Vietnam. Pretty sure its commercial. What's your opinion
