    Korean era Mk IV heat stamp? Empty Korean era Mk IV heat stamp?

    Post by Apache-8 Tue May 11, 2021 3:30 pm

    Hello there. I recently picked up a Korean era Mk IV shell that got retrofitted as a Mk V some point latter in life, and have been having trouble identifying the manufacture. the heat stamp reads: 

    ROC              4
                JJ
    MA              1952

    at first I thought it was just and RO&CO that stamped wrong but after doing some digging I found a few other helmets with the same heat stamp accept for the characters where the JJ is. I haven't been able to find anything about a manufacture with the stamp ROC so would this be an RO&CO batch that was stamped badly or would this be some other company, from another commonwealth nation perhaps? any help is greatly appreciated.
