The first pic you posted is of a standard US military PASGT helmet.

Now you can either A) Buy the real kevlar deal or B) Buy an ABS plastic replica for airsoft, the ABS plastic version is around $40 - $60 canadian though the kevlar one is usually $400 and upwards. All depends if you plan on getting shot in the head with an actual bullet :-P

Plastic replica. Apples to oranges.

Telnets · February 22nd, 2006, 02:16

yes but its fake plastic all it is is an older style PASGT Armor Helmet.. there is a newer style called MICH as well, fairly similar..

you can get real PASGT ones on ebay for about 30-50 bucks depending on the condition.. but i was TOLD kevlar was illigal to bring into canada.. why who knows.. or even if its true, i got mine here regular USPS post just fine without any customs issue.

PASGT or "k-pots" as USMC members call them. You can easily get them through ebay.
Some have regular chin strap, others have more fashion strap.

The guy in the picture is Airforce not USMC anyhow, but yeah, the PASGTs are pretty easy to find now, especially on ebay since MICH helmets have replaced them in many units and most front line units.

Not the same thing, but pretty damn close too.

$400 is a real PASGT? lmao ,if someone pays that much they are getting ripped off.

400!?!?! man, what is with these ridiculous prices. PASGTs go as low as 20 Canadian on ebay. For 400 you could buy a real MICH helmet, fuck buying a PASGT for that price, this isn't the 1980s.
