This one I picked up at the Chantilly gun show a few weeks ago.

Interior. Note that the one strap post has been split and the chin strap will no longer fit.

Very cool and unique pattern.

George,

If possible, please post better pics of the camo paint without the glare. The liner rivets have been moved around... the flat one in the back should be on the left side and smaller thicker rivet in the rear. Does any of the paint on the rivets match the surrounding camo? The liner looks like a nice original as well as the chinstrap.

Chuck, it actually has two thick rivets, the one on the side and the rivet in back. All the paint is long gone from the rivet heads. I'll take some more photos later.

Nice camo helmet. I've seen original and untouched helmets with the rivets moved around...maybe field replaced?

It is similar to these helmets in this well-known (by now) picture.

That is a killer photo... I posted it with a helmet I recently sold with this pattern camo.

Looks like a promising helmet and the caption on the photo should read,

"We ate them, all that's left of them is shells" LOL

It's not a nice helmet, it's a GREAT helmet!

Great camo. I have never seen this pattern before. The picture really nails down the authenticity of the pattern.

Nice lid
