IMA still has some authentic ones in stock they got from a Finnish arsenal a few years back. They are original German made, but the Fins put new paint on them in WW2 and new liners.

Russian K6 - 3 helmet with visor

damn i love this almost fantasy tier mix of ww1 armor and mediveal ages. One day I gonna make a diy 5 section type grubenpanzer, with one inner and outer layer of thin sheetmetal and about 20 layers of glassfibre matts in epoxy resin sandviched between, held together with belts and also backplates, not just fronf protection like the real ones

Unless there's something I'm not aware of those aren't 1916 stahlhelms, the 1916 is the WWI model with a slightly different shape and the two big lugs, the Finnish ones on IMA are m40s made in the third reich and west Germany for export to Finland.

Wrong you fucking moron. They are legitimate 1916 german imperial helmets sold to Finland after ww1 and refurbished for the winter war

I figured they'd call them finnish like the other finnish helmets.

Yes.

>Name the poorfag and watch him lash out
Don’t you have a just as good thread to start?

I never "got" the design on that helmet. It was from an era where guns were quite effective, and the most armored people just wore breastplates. Why the upturned "snout" and giant ridge running along the back? Defense from downward melee strikes? Something to do with ease of production? I dont know

you're all a bunch of faggots

Who changed the chinstrap and when? The original chinstrap was the biggest problem with the helmet.
Yes, the M56 and most steel helmets can at 10 yards. The M56 can supposedly stop 7.62 Tokarev, but it failed in the only test I’ve seen. Regardless, it is still more effective than most steel helmets.
The berndorfer had a stirnpanzer equivalent, pic related

It was designed for pike combat. It would deflect frontal pokes if you kept your head down and it would also help deflect glancing blows to the side of your head. It was never meant to be any sort of protection against guns. Everyone ended up using it for decades ecause it was cheap easy to make and it was decent in all sorts of melee fighting.

Accurate?

It's either airshit or larping, the 1916 at least fought for the kaiser, fag

That's actually an AR500 helmet with a $1400 NVG setup, but i'm sure your $60 wheraboo repro is fought for the kaiser

People really spend that much money to pretend to operate?
