British MK6 /MK6 A Helmet Covers

[James C]

I have thought about that...and I've looked at PECOC pics for a match....if they ARE I've got a couple on nice hosts for them....... ;-)

The metal eyelets are the mystery for me....why bother with eyelets when there's no labels / other niceties????

That is true Composite and thanks to you have seen them first hand as far as the 3 colour/4 colour dpm it was exported to a few middle east countries/nations but have never seen a mk 6 style cover in use only the us nam mitchell cover worn in the autumn side which back up my theory as a PECOC program cover

[James C]

Composite I've had a rethink on the PECOC theory Qatari military perhaps

'interesting.....I'll try to find out when Qatar started using it as, it's claimed, mine was in a collection for some time. I WANT it to be PECOC.....but don't reckon it is/will be.......

is that a Mk6 ?....'unusual chin cup?????

[James C]

It certainly looks to be a Mk6 style cover just not sure if the ear sections are there though ,the chin cup section reminds me of my trials Mk6

[Cap Camouflage Pattern I]

My first and only Mk6 helmet cover, most sellers don't ship to the US, this one is nice and salty, just the way I like them.

[James C]

I like them salty too ,nice example amd thanks for sharing CCPI

The black elastic strap would be for NBC , So when you have a respirator on it is quicker to pull this strap over, so it is another form of a chinstrap. Cheers Terry. Sorry Composite the message has popped up here...

[James C]

Cheers for dropping By Terry and for commenting this cover and para helmet are still one of the favorites in my collection Just to share also are these netted Mk6 and MK 6 A covers both in Dpm

Hi all!!
I picked up a nice salty, smooth finish MK 6 dated 1987.. and this cover was on it... its DC2CESL/3129 contract number but it bears no makers marks?? however it has two supplementary white labels... the first bearing PO:01681, and the second C26... so Judging by Marks previously posted "made in China" MTP example with the same PO: and C26 code ....my cover is also made in china!!!??


I include here another Mk6 MTP just for the "made in china" label "WTF"?
