"Fantastic helmet. Some of you may wonder why you should spend $30 more for this helmet, and hear is why:
-It provides more protection than cheaper helmets
-It is very adjustable. Straps adjust, padding adjusts, height adjusts, tightness adjusts.
-lightweight
-many options for rails, comes with several different rail accessories
-I was able to put my goggles on it and a mesh lower face mask.
-MC and looks way cooler than your friend's helmet, which, let's be honest, is the most important aspect of any tac gear.

"A teammate of mine got this helmet only in ATACs camo to match his uniform. So when I was looking for a FAST helmet to match mine I noticed that the ATACs one was out of stock. I was then going to get tan until last minute when I saw this (I don't know how I missed it originally). So I ordered it.
Originally I was a hater of FAST helmets and I always loved the look of the MICH/PASGT designs. But when I put this on, things changed. I have a MICH 2000 but I love this helmet better.
When it came today I got adjusted perfectly in under a minute (my MICH is still not setup properly). Another nice factor is the helmet dial which tightens or loosens to fit your head perfectly. I can unhook the straps and the helmet wont wobble at all. *I have heard that this is made for people with smaller heads. I have a friend with a big head that cannot fit into my MICH but can wear this, so i don't know if that is true*
The camo looks beautifully and gives it a nice touch as opposed to plain colored FAST helmets, so you don't have to worry about painting it or buying a helmet color. It also works well in conjunction with the ATACS camouflage, but I believe it would work well with Multicam, Tan, and Woodland also, (any camo with brown or tan really).
Overall this helmet looks good, fits good, and has the ability to accept cameras easier than other helmets.
The only Con I have with this helmet is that the buckles connect on the lower left cheek. I am a lefty shooter so the buckle prevents me from properly looking down the iron sights. However with the adjustment dial that I mentioned before, I can unhook the straps and not worry about the helmet falling off, thus canceling the problem.
Coming from someone who was skeptical of FAST helmets at first, I would definitely recommend this to someone interested in headgear.

"I got this helmet recently, and I love it. My adjustable liner was a little broken, but it's barely noticable, so I don't really care. The helmet super light, but it still feels solid. There's lots of velcro real estate, and the side rails allow for a lot of customization.
Pros: Lightweight, breathable, comfortable, solid, easy to personalize, really easy to adjust
Cons: None

"Got this helmet about a month back, certainly well worth the money! Very light, fits nicely, and has enough rail and velcro space for two helmets! The adjustment system is great, but if you have a large head, you might need a larger piece of equipment.
PROS:
Lightweight
Affordable
Fits snugly
Space galore!
CONS:
One size fits all...if your head is small.

"Overall this is a good, comfortable, helmet. It has a neat adjustment knob on the back, plus several different sized pads to get the fit just right. I like the rails mounted on it and the large bag of accessort clips and such that come with it. I was able to attach my lower face shield directly to it using the attachment "buclkes" and rail sliders that were included with the helmet so I didn't have to havee an elastic strap running around my head. It has good ventilation ar well; I played on a field in 100+ degree heat and high humidity and wasn't bothered al all by this helmet.
The only problem I had was that, when lying in the prone position, the neck protection area pushes against the back of the neck/shoulders forcing the front of the helmet down and partially obstructing your vision of things at a distance. Of course, when I was hit in the back of the head a couiple times, I was glad that neck protection was there.
It's a bit pricy but it's a really good helmet.

"I just got mine in the a few minutes ago and can i say wow! feels extremely comfortable doesn't feel lose at all. the quality of the helmet feels nice, the straps on it feels very nice, not rough at all just very smooth on you. I have not seen any reviews on it so i took a chance of getting it since i loved this style. And i got what i payed for a great helmet to wear.

"Overall, the helmet is of high quality. The pad inserts that come with the helmet are pretty self-explanatory, even though there are no included directions. Included with the helmet is a pack of various clips and attachments. The adjustment dial at the rear of the helmet is somewhat hard to manipulate, which could be a positive or a negative depending on your preference. I prefer that it is a little difficult, so it is less likely to adjust during wear from unintentional contact. My only complaint is that the color in the photo found on the product page is not accurate. The dark earth helmet is advertised as more of a coyote brown, but in reality, the helmet color is closer to an olive drab. I actually really like the color, but I purchased this helmet for use in milsims, and color designation is critical per the ruleset. If you are considering purchasing a bump helmet, you will not go wrong with the 6mmProShop Advanced PJ helmet.

"Good quality. Camo printing is very detailed, however since I bought the Kryptek Typhon pattern, I wish they would have used a black helmet as the base. The inside of my helmet is tan. Easy to adjust and comes with side rail mounting accessories.

"Decent helmet, but could use some improvements.
Pros:
-Makes u look totally 0per@10r!!!
-Protects your head (obviously)
-Lots of Velcro space
-Gives you the milsim look
-If you do some modding, you can attach the goggles and mesh mask to it so you can just slide on all your head gear at once instead of strapping the helmet, putting on the goggles, and the adjusting the mesh mask.
-very adjustable and comfy!
Cons
-made of cheapish plastic. I feel like if I'm paying $70 for a helmet, I should get some really durable polymer, but the plastic feels like the plastic on my $30 spring pistol. Definitely not gonna break if you bump your head, but If you slam your noggin in a brick wall, I feel like it would fracture. If I slammed my g36c into the wall, I might scratch it a little. See what I mean?
-one of the inner parts that are on the other side of the screw that attach the bands to the helmet fell off the first time I used it, but, duct tape can do anything.
Overall, it's a decent helmet to protect your head from BB hits, bumps to the side of the wall, and falling down and hitting your head against the dirt like I did when I was rushing someone and stepped in a ditch in the middle of a firing lane and fell down on the side of my head :(. It's a pretty good helmet that could use a few upgrades in the build material.

"I picked up one of these a while back, and Absolutely loved it!!! My head is size 7 7/8 which is pretty huge. It didn't fit well at all without giving me a serious headache! But, if you just take the front most pad out, it fits GREAT!!! It'll fit a head well over size 8. The front pad is tricky and I actually kind of broke mine figuring this out. There are two Phillips head screws holding the forehead strap into place. If you remove the screws, the front foam piece can be removed (CAREFULLY) as its just held on by Velcro. INSANELY nice helmet!! I had a $30 one and it was junk. If you want a helmet that will fit nicely with goggles, look amazing, is pretty high quality, and is COMPLETELY adjustable I'd say you need this one.
P.S. I gave it only 4 stars because it doesn't fit all heads. I have a freakishly large head! But for $70 it really should fit all sizes. Still love mine though.

"I got this helmet and was pretty happy with it. However, I am a hat size 7 & 1/2, and this helmet barely fit me with all of the padding taken out. If don't want to wear it high on your head, then you might have a hard time finding goggles that fit with the helmet.
