PASGT Helmets - A Couple of Questions, Please?

[JBR]

Thank you Russ & Son. Yes, that's useful site but it doesn't answer the question (or at least, I haven't found the answer there). Even Mark Reynosa's book doesn't help. Input much appreciated, though. Best Regards,

Hi JBR

Is there a chance the helmets you have seen could have been PASGT clones? As there are dozens of different PASGT being used by security forces & the like around the world! Some only look similar in shape but some are near exact copys of the US helmet. Or were they US issue? I am pretty sure I could give you a better answer if you have any reference pics you could post? Cheers! Sean.

Good point Sean. Some seen in pictures could well be clones. However, I have handled a couple myself and they were definitely PASGT. One was very reasonably price - but I didn't buy it! I think I was strapped for cash that day. My sole PASGT is the original OD colour. Best Regards,
