BSRmilitaria Posted July 22, 2020 Share #1 Posted July 22, 2020 Hi all, I recently picked up these two kevlar helmets in a large grouping of OIF era SF items. Has anyone ever seen this variation of helmet before? I am very familiar with PASGT, LWH, ACH, ECH and IHPS helmets, but never have come across similar ones before. Lastly, considering they were found with other SF items, I presume they are SF related - though can someone confirm this? Thanks in advance for your help! Sincerely, William Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap Camouflage Pattern I Posted July 22, 2020 Share #2 Posted July 22, 2020 To me they look like RBR products, but not sure of the exact model, the first one looks like it might be a an RBR PASGT and the second one looks similar to the F6 Mach 1 but I haven't seen one of those with 5 screws, maybe its just early or maybe its a different helmet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trenchfoot Posted July 22, 2020 Share #3 Posted July 22, 2020 They are definitely based off of the RBR F6 helmets. I’d look very hard around the inside to see if there is any manufacturing marks still left, they can be present stamped on the piece that the liner threads through near the back of the helmet. RBR was bought by the company “Lightweight Body Armor” so it could also be their version of the F6. Regardless, US Special Forces did use RBR helmets at some point, I believe in the early 2000’s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSRmilitaria Posted July 22, 2020 Author Share #4 Posted July 22, 2020 Thanks guys! This has been very helpful, and I really appreciate your time.I will comb over the helmets again and see if I can find a manufacture tag. William Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
