Jam_Man Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 Looking at helmets and was looking at OneTigris but told the FMA ones are adjustable so worth spending a few quid more on one of them. Ive found them on http://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/fma-ballistic-helmet-dark-earth-lxl but there seems to be far more of a selection on ebay. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-FMA-FAST-Helmet-Military-Tactical-ABS-Helmet-Multicam-For-Airsoft-Paintball-/401150482570?var=&hash=item5d666e988a:m:mLm_AnN205N8rvka7U5l2tA Are these the genuine article or just chinese knockoffs?
Mr Monkey Nuts Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 They are ALL chinese knock offs. unless they are kevlar, weigh 3 tonnes and cost ££££ they are all chinese.
Jam_Man Posted August 20, 2016 Author Posted August 20, 2016 Oh everything is made in China, guess what Im asking is the quality of the ebay chinese ones going to be the same as those imported and sold here thus having to abide by our quality controls.
Supporters jcheeseright Posted August 20, 2016 Supporters Posted August 20, 2016 They're the same product. Just with a markup for being sold in the UK.
Jam_Man Posted August 21, 2016 Author Posted August 21, 2016 Cool, helmet purchased. Will see what its like when it turns up in about 3 months
Moderators djben9 Posted September 1, 2016 Moderators Posted September 1, 2016 Cool, helmet purchased. Will see what its like when it turns up in about 3 months 4 weeks for mine....from AirsoftPeak worked out about £45 from memory....so a little saving
Jam_Man Posted September 9, 2016 Author Posted September 9, 2016 2 weeks to turn up, and its too small. Gah. Head bigger than I though, like it though so will change for larger size, altho probably just buy one and resell the smaller one

Buy one which has an adjustable wheel on the back of the helmet that way if it's too big you can make it smaller. I have a Nuprol one in Atacs-FG with the adjuster wheel on the back it's excellent, don't even need to use the chip strap to keep it from falling off even when i've had NVG on it as well. Here's an example. http://gunfire.pl/product-eng-1152206481-FAST-BJ-helmet-replica-L-XL-ATC-FG.html
Jam_Man Posted September 10, 2016 Author Posted September 10, 2016 Yeah thats what I did. Turned up today, this is the maritime version this time and much better size.
Jam_Man Posted September 12, 2016 Author Posted September 12, 2016 Gone back to the FAST ABS PJ Helment, didnt like the high cut of the maritime helmet. If I had headphones it would be perfect but as I dont its just a big patch of head waiting to get hit.
