Hi.

So I bought a replica ops core helmet of taiwan gun. The thing is I can't find any pictures with any armed forces units using it. I'm talking specifically about the BASE jump one. So does anyone know who uses it. Pictured is my one.

SEALs, PJs, plenty of other SF units seem to. Yes there are special versions of it but they're basically the same lid with a slightly different cut. Wouldn't get too hung up on it personally!

 
USAF PJs have been seen using the BASE jump version, SEALS have also been photographed using them in training.

If you want one that's 'legit' for a lot of units though you're better off with the ballistic or maritime versions. Failing that, get a cover for the one you've got and it'll be a challenge for anyone to tell the difference.
