NATO green paint not pernect but looks the part when worn.
Brand new British current kevlar para helmet with DPM cover and cats eye band I got this helmet for £50.00 on ebay bargain.
Back
Rebuilt French Mle 51/56 Para helmet bought as a shell only I rebiult it using a new french liner and a chin strap i made by copying one on a helmet in the
collection of a bloke I know.
French F1 All arms helmet was used by paras and ground troops untill the introduction of the Spectra helmet(and is im told still prefered by French paras)
I replaced the chin strap with one I got from ebay it was listed as a experemental 3 point chin strap for a US helmet I dont know wich helmet and a DPM
cover.

NZ issue M1 steel helmet with unissued Mitchell pattern helmet cover. No idea when it was issued. Picked it up in the 80's in NZ. (NZ used Mitchell pattern helmet covers before they came up with their own camo.)
GENTEX ACH helmet made in 2009 - unissued, size medium. Complete with booklet and predrilled hole for NVG Mount
Steel PASGT helmet. Made in Asia. I love this one. I bought it for Paintball.
Fibreglass PASGT helmet with SKYDEX PASGT upgrade kit - pads and strap/retention system. Nice!
