Thanks for your comments guys!
Glenn, I would rather like this sobering experience then having a hole in my head...
Dean, One day you'll meet one with your name on it!
Lokvar, I only collect German, so I don't have (need) one... yet...

Always wanted a " Stirnpanzer" for my WW1 German helmet.. they must be expensive though.

Just saw this thread and liked it very much. Thought i'd add a few pics which you may not have seen before..... Yes i would think that they worked!! This is almost a direct frontal hit, only a slight upward angle to the shot.
That's indeed an amazing proof of the effectiveness of a stirnpanzer! It may not have saved the wearer every time, but it improved the chances to survive... Thanks for posting these pictures.

I haven't managed to find one of these for myself yet, but here's hoping! I've always loved just how 'ww1' the stirnpanzer is, both sides trying to find any sort of innovation or new design to give their soldiers the edge. Thanks for sharing your pics Segel!
