[James C]

Just to post up this Soviet style cold war period OPFOR helmet used by the British army for military exercise training and made of plastic material with a basic hard hat style cradle

Wonderfull!

I saw a turtle for sale recently with remains of a red star on the front, though rather stupidly did not buy it....

[James C]

Thanks Ethan and Jerry that is food for thought regarding other possible Opfor used helmets even including the venerable Turtle

Nice....I have a US one somewhere with side clips which slip over the edge of the M1 liner.....

‘Not seen a Brit one before.....

[James C]

James...mine is really flexible when the M1 liner’s not in place..yours looks more substantial. Was it local?

[James C]
