There are a few odd ones that aren't really available yet..
Like the New SAS helmet, and that new Delta Force helmet..

Good point about the Israeli helmet, I'll have to look into it more..
Just hadn't thought of it..

Is it for biking or just for hiding in? I was under the impression that the SAS were wearing the Mk7 when they wear one, and the Delta one (if you mean the Blackhawk Down one) was a cheaply bought skateboarding helmet with no ballistic protection

Contemplating Buying a more Modern Helmet..
Generally, I prefer a boonie hat, but sometimes safe is better than sorry..

My good ole Steel Pot is well past its Prime, except for use for field Hygiene..
For some things, it is STILL THE BEST!

Choices are:

PASGT, "Fritz"
ACH/MICH
British MK VI
New British MK VII

Opinions???? (on the helmets)..



 personally, i like my tinfoil helmets.  :noid

 for riding, i like shoeis. can't get much better than them.

No they have new ones that are similar to the impact helmets.. But made of ballistic ceramic, compressed spectra and aluminum oxide powder.. Same stuff the ESAPI plates are made of.. They look like a "Full Cut" bike helmet.. But with attachment points added.. Smaller and lighter, less clunky, but still with decent coverage.. NEW, SWEET!
