    hello folks,

    as you can see im having a clearout/inventry today!

    have owned this item for about 20 odd years, only identifying mark really is the buckle which is marked "prima"

    so! real? fake? close? miles-off?

    cheers

    Hello, it's French for Défense Passive. You can find also DP on French helmets. Painted or with a badge on the helmet.
