Help! Helmet ID

[pdolan5]

Hi everyone,

I'm new to this forum and I figured a few experts on here would be able to help me solve my mystery. I was given this helmet as a gift...I know nothing of its origin prior to its purchase, but I was hoping to find out whether it's a fake or authentic. Its condition looks almost too well kept to be genuine. If anyone could provide some insight on the model or type, I would be most grateful.

Thanks,
PD

i believe its a German civic police helmet but whether the decals are original im not sure you may need to show better close up pics of them.

well i am no helmet expert but the swas decal is in mirror reflection the hooks bent left should be right so that is a negative point for me

can you post a pic of the inside
and any markings in the shell
cheers j

Firstly you have the mirror pictures. Secondary needs better close up pictures. Thirdly, if you are looking for a cheap Feuerwehr helmets they can be easily found in the internet in better condition, I think even our sponsors have them for sale.

is it me or are the decals on the wrong sides ?????

It must be the computer...I took the photos with my mac since I couldn't find my digital camera, so the decals are opposite the way they really are. Sorry, I'll try and post better pictures soon :-\

Hi,
I agree with the others comments, also i think the decals have been placed wrong and are also to high on the helmet.
