These were patterned after the German M31 mess kit, and it's quite apparent when you use one why they kept using this style. These are surplus mess kits that have the correct wire hanger bales on them, and I have painted the correct Pre\/Early war dark gray paint seen from 1931-1940 on the majority of mess kits. Obviously variations existed, and this one is professionally copied off an original, so the color is fantastic. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNOTE: These are surplus, and are used. Please expect these to not be perfect and expect dents, dings, etc.  There were some minor flaws in the paint on a couple of them that I didn't catch until after I put the first coat of paint on, so they may not be factory smooth and perfect. This does not take away from the appearance and actual color, and that just means you can get these scuffed up and used-looking without worrying about it. It's not on all of them, but if yours has some of these minor imperfections, you'll know why.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mike's Militaria","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48540873883869,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1272\/6857\/files\/0E4A8F2D-D406-4B0F-859E-6A6C2286599F.jpg?v=1789079103","url":"https:\/\/www.mikesmilitaria.com\/en-ca\/products\/ww2-german-style-m31-mess-kit-with-pre-early-war-paint","provider":"Mike's Militaria","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
