tomlegg Posted December 31, 2017 Share #1 Posted December 31, 2017 Hi there guys, I've just purchased this helmet off eBay thinking it was a USMC Lightweight Helmet, however I'm now having my doubts mainly due to the chin strap and lining arrangement. Can anyone ID what I've brought please? Many thanks all, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomlegg Posted December 31, 2017 Author Share #3 Posted December 31, 2017 Bugger..........I've just answered my own question. Looks like it is a British made civilian version of the PASGT style helmet... http://www.globalarmour.co.uk/index.php/ballistic-helmets Bugger!

MattS Posted December 31, 2017 Share #4 Posted December 31, 2017 I think the ".co.uk" web address on the label should have been a big clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anelles Posted December 31, 2017 Share #5 Posted December 31, 2017 I've seen these on eBay quite a bit. I've guessed they were probably contractor used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomlegg Posted December 31, 2017 Author Share #6 Posted December 31, 2017 I think the ".co.uk" web address on the label should have been a big clue. Yes you'd think, but annoyingly that picture (and one other) wouldn't load on my phone when I purchased it. It was only when I sat down at the PC to ask here that all the pics loaded correctly. Sods law I guess! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a bit bummed as I thought I nabbed a mislabeled LWH but a contractor helmet is pretty neat. Cheers bud, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
