There is a dinky helmet in the UK that has ott been labeled as a Mk6 replica, but it's closer to the M1 liner then anything else. Best you can do if you want a DPM helmet that's light is buy a Dutch helmet cover and put it on a PASGT replica.

I paid $100.00 in T.O. for mine .It did come with a brand new cover though!

Bought mine for 45$CAD shipped hahaha Gotta love deal hunting on Ebay UK

Brit ter · January 19th, 2008, 15:47

I,ll say you got a good deal

Brit ter · January 19th, 2008, 15:48

But I did get my FV comms helmet for $30.00

Well I often search on Eaby UK because most of th nice and cheap item are there. I found out that more often that not, people will gladly ship to Canada. My advice is ask about shipping. At the worse it'll be a simple no, at thte best you'll save big bucks

We where going to order a ferret part ,the part was like 40 pnds . The shipping and insurance was going to come to 100 pnds. we haven,t ordered the part

It just received mine for 77 buck Canadian shipping included. It turned uot to be outsize so it have lots of room inside. Its fits fine when I weir a watch cap underneth. Its by far one of me favorite helmets now.

Lerch · January 21st, 2008, 16:17

Good to hear, I got the outsize aswell and with my fat head it's a great fit. Bought it for about £25 shipped without a cover.

CARL · January 21st, 2008, 16:34

Yeah i think I will get the new MK6a, i have to get my british kit going now. May as well start from the top..lol

Lerch · January 21st, 2008, 16:51

Get the expensive bits first

kevlar, windproof, load-bearing...

CARL · January 21st, 2008, 16:56

Yeah considering how much my german gear has cost I know what to expect,besides I do find the british gear less expesnsive.

Capt. Tyco · January 21st, 2008, 17:18

Its probably easier to get a hold of aswell.

For those of average height, yes. For me, very few trousers fit

There's lots of the old Mk6's on eBay now from surplus, so outsize and all the other sizes are easily bought, with or without covers.

Like any modern helmet, is designed for one thing... to stunt the growth and shrink your height from constant wearing of a house on your head... it protects your head from nasties but canm easily do your neck in (ouch).

Most of us just stick with 'crap hats' (i love them) or bush hats...
