Well I suppose I had to get one sooner or later. I don't know much about this, except it belonged to a Para
from 642 Intelligence Battalion, so all comments appreciated.

About time Andy thats a great looking Kevlar.....Jake.
Thank's Jake.
I've got to say this is the heaviest helmets I've ever handled. I wouldn't fancy jumping with this on my head.
Andy
I had one of these a while ago, I was really impressed with the quality. It certainly imparts a feeling of security when you wear it too, infinitely better than our contemporary counterpart, the shitty head wrecking Mk6......
Nice K-pot
very nice example complete with all chinstrap side retaining straps its definately seen use ,look at the wear on the neck padding andy what i like about the US k pot is it looks great displayed with or without covers as it has a nice textured finish as standard not unlike the m1 ,you are right though ive never felt such a heavy lid before ,much heavier than a steel pot thanks for sharing
Regards James
Thanks James, I'll watch out for one on the bay.
That's a great pic above, but what the heck are the two guys towards the back carrying?
Andy
not sure andy but they have yellow static lines ,maybe field equipment of some sort
