Thanks in advance,

Close ups

Photo's are not very good, so it becomes more difficult to judge, but from first impressions, I would pass.

Yup, need better photos but so far there are concerns.....

I agree,I think this helmet made an appearance here a few years ago
and did not receive a good review,anyone else remember it?.

Steve, Tuff call with these pics but rear skirt edge looks rusty while front edge looks fresh. Sharp, close up pics would be needed to make a better call.

PS: Its possible somebody started cleaning the rust off but stopped before finishing.....

I wouldn't write it off yet. I think it may have a chance. Pictures suck too bad to tell though.

Thanks guys, will try to get better photos.

This helmet is in the vast ocean of "maybe" junk camos. Better pics aren't needed. It would be a waste of money IMO....

Ok, appreciate your opinion but to me it looks good, any pointers??

[Luftm40]

Well...this is the kind of helmet that 25% will think is OK, 25% will think is bad and 50% just won't know for sure. This fact makes it not worth adding to a collection IMO. Why own a helmet that 75% of your fellow collectors wouldn't want? Even if it is real, it is an ugly helmet that has been cleaned or scrubbed at some point. Another reason not to buy it. You would be better off saving your money for a better example of a camo, or perhaps seeking a very nice example of a standard combat helmet.

I'm in the 50%! Thanks for the advice, appreciate it
