I once partnered with a Saudi private during a joint exercise. Guy had taped his G3 sling onto the stock because he couldn't figure out how to mount it correctly

I guess it gets pretty hot out there.

Its great for when you have to take it off and run away from an ambush.

I like the emphasis on fastex buckles so you can shed your gear and run for your life when facing danger.

Saudi Niggerabia, truly best allies.

Helmets don't actually protect against bullets, more shrapnel and falling shit. Those would serve their purpose whilst being light
>>
>>31362614
If you like lots of shrapnel going into your neck, head and face it's a great helmet

I thought the lower head and neck is pretty important in terms of shrapnel protection.

Shrapnel has the bad habit of hitting from multiple azimuths.

I suspect that helmet is just too small for his head and is riding high.

jesus what I would pay to just shoot fucks like that with some sort of grenade.....

>Doesn't stop bullets
Are you stupid? Maybe you should rephrase and say stopping bullets isn't the primary purpose of a modern combat helmet?
>>
>>31363044
speaking of helmets stopping bullets

isnt there a few level 3 helmets out in the market right now?

I dont know, but I do know even the old mil helmets even stop handgun rounds.

You know there's a reason that almost every helmet since the Adrian and Stahlhelm have neck protection right? Keeps hot shrapnel from falling down your neck. That's the same reason firefighters use Adrian/Stahlhelm style helmets too.

dis helmet protects against bullets

Because so many people are running around with pistols on a battlefield.
>>Can easily extrapolate that it can stop rifle rounds at ranges of 600 yards or more depending on circumstance
Something like 80% if not more of all engagements are at less than half that distance. Helmets are not designed to catch rifle rounds, they're designed to keep you from getting knocked out because you caught a 2x4 to the head while clearing a building and to block shrapnel and shit.

Yup american made helmet.

Suck camel's dick. Should've just bought Spectra helmet and be done with it
>>
>>31362642
they don't in the context in which you would be wearing one. Not some police tier action using 9mm, but actual combat. It can stop a bullet but don't count on it in the least bit.

Why does it look like two helmets stacked in the first test?
>>
>>31367906
thats a ww2-sometime later helmet. its got an inner shell that has straps to adjust. the two helmets are usually held together by a heavy exterior cloth. I still got one I picked up from a surplus store when I was a kid.
>>
>>31367941
oh and to add to that the interior helmet is like this weird hard particle board looking shit, not metal. use your googlefu if you want to know more I guess.

IDK lots of stories like that are exaggerated or made up. Kind of like US soldiers picking up AK-47s from dead enemies in Vietnam. Shit apparently never happened, but is now "common knowledge" in the gun world.
