5th ID helmet beware

Just wanted to give a heads up on this one. I used to own this one before and sold it a few months ago. While the 5th ID helmet shell is original, there was no liner with it when I purchased it. Not sure if the current seller added it, or someone between me or him.

Thats a nice helmet. Is the seller claiming there is a name written on the helmet chinstrap or on the liner strap?

Im sure it was added this guy runs around the markets around me, Ive seen a few things hes doctored up. The helmet was much more than the asking price for the shell alone though

Would be nice to know if this was your buyer or not and if so, we can add him to the ever growing list. If him, what a shame, he sells tons of military and most likely been embellishing many items over the years then.

The current seller is not the original buyer. Im glad to hear that who I sold it to is not the unethical one.

I am familiar with the original seller great guy, Ive bought a ton from him. He has integrity that the current seller lacks
