    The pts mtek flux are pretty spacious. 
     
    I also suffer from having a massive head.....I assume it's from my amazing brain. I clock in around 61cm and the pts mtek flux is good to go.

    No hi-capa is worth £700, no matter how much the seller has been silly enough to throw at it, especially as the original straight out of the box TM variants are superb on almost every level, anything added is usually just prettying them up, bit like a girl with her favourite dolly 😜

    I don’t know, it just made me chuckle that the email was like “Do you want some TM bits?  A new MP5K?  Do you want to buy the business?”

    If your getting lots of head shots I'd recommend not making your head so much of a target. Or if you've got one of those pesky snipers that like to shoot headshots for internet stardom, find a different site to play at.

    It’s not my vibe, but to each their own.  I do have some concerns though:
     
    I can’t see a proper safety rating on the glasses.  For me that’s an immediate non starter.

    The cost is pretty hectic, and for me if I was spending that kind of cash I’d buy another PTS Flux or something equally Gucci.  
     
    I’d really struggle to get my head behind the sights, and to get a decent cheek weld.  Even with a high riser on the sight I don’t think it’d be workable for me.
     
    Although the inbuilt fan is supposed to be silent, I wonder if it actually would be and how effective it will be.  That looks like a sweaty time.
     
    The safety aspect is the most pressing, and I’d investigate that further, but the rest is up to you!

    Looks good, but as has been said, lotta money for something that might be a safety liability primarily, & lots of other issues that may not be immediately apparent. 
    Even if everything about was up to the job, you might absolutely hate playing in it, bit like a biker riding in a Simpson Bandit helmet for the first time, talk about tunnel vision, enough to trigger a migraine. 
    Only thing I'd suggest is if anyone has anything similar at the sites you attend, ask them if you can borrow it for a game, at least then you'll know that kinda set up is viable for you.

    As @Duff Beerhas said really.
    I've got a full face helmet but don't use it because I can't aim down sight or get gun comfortably in my shoulder. Even with a high riser on my gun it's still not easy sighting.
    Plus it's bloody heavy,so is the helmet come to think of it 😂

    Don’t know if it’s entirely useful information, but I run a Warhead Standard Black on a base set of gears and a 9.9v LiFe and it’s pretty bloody snappy and very efficient on battery life.
     
    For me, before everything a Warhead Motor is now the first upgrade before anything else

    I have three, one green nylon, one woodland and one of those god awful modern versions where all the straps and buckles are in the wrong place. Definitely interesting to see the "what goes around" happening in the resurgence of belt kits and indeed, butt packs, with the Spiritus LBE expander, the Mayflower/Velocity Jungle rig, the Platatac belt kits and of course, good old British belt order kit (which never really went away to be fair).

    It’s nice and neat, and can slot into the webbing nicely.

    I use a PTS Flux and it’s super comfy.  The cutout at the back is useful for looking up stairs/being prone, and it’s easily the comfiest helmet I’ve ever worn.  It’s a licensed copy of the real deal, and there aren’t that many around which is quite nice.
     
    It’s not all roses though.  As the pads are memory foam they can get super warm in the height of summer, but that’s the price you pay for the comfort.  The straps and pads come out to be washed if you have sweated in I t.  As the rails are MLOK you have to be a bit more discerning over putting things on it, but I’ve not had an issue with things like putting cans on there.  And then there’s the cost.  
     
    As it’s a proper replica and is made of nice things it’s not the cheapest around, but it arguably one of the best.

    I wear my PTS Flux indoors for CQB as the Black Site is dark and has many things I can doink my head on (mostly due to being clumsy).  It’s also saved me a couple of times from what would have been very painful close range shots.  It gives a stable platform to mount my ears, as well as my head torch too.  Plus I think it looks cool!  I got the Spiritus Systems cover which is arguably the most underwhelming thing I’ve bought for the money in my entire life (it was about £90 if I remember correctly), so get a knockoff from eBay.  MTEK do laser cut camoskins in various patterns if you don’t want a cover.
     
    There’s sod all chance I’ll wear it in the woods though except for the coldest of cold days.
