We are now able to offer a very affordable reproduction of the WWII US paratrooper helmet- with all parts being brand new reproductions. Externally, they look almost identical to WWII jump helmet.
The OD3 helmet chinstraps and A-yokes are ATF: We make and install them. All other parts are imported.
They’re far less expensive than using original parts, the color is correct, they look decent externally and, unlike many other reproduction M1’s, the liners will fit properly when a net is used (as opposed to the rim sticking out an inch or more.)
Cheap has a price of its own: These are not military grade! The pots are the correct color, but they’re not hardened steel, and many have a chip or two in the paint. The liners are plastic, the leather chinstraps aren’t great, the suspension is green, and there are no nape straps.
Some liners fit a bit loosely in the pots, which also happens on some originals. There are two solutions- place masking tape on the top of the liner, or use a helmet net (or camo cover). That will take up the slack and tighten things down.
