[QUOTE="coolhandluke, post: 2583486, member: 13284"] Those are two of my favorites as well Ronny. I'm really starting to prefer the salty looking helmets that have seen some use. The fixed bale helmet was pretty much a basket case when I got my hands on it. It looked like it had been pulled out of a barn and was about an inch deep in mud and bird droppings. After a little vacuuming, a bath in Woolite, and a replacement liner chin strap and sweatband she looks respectable again. The wife is way more patient than she probably should be about my hobbies. She knows that she is the most important priority so it probably makes it a little easier to put up with. I keep everything confined to the office at our house along with my vintage stereo and baseball collection. I feel lucky to have my own room so I try to keep it as presentable as possible. One of these days I'll have to post some photos of the man cave. I plan on adding a PASGT (like yours) and an ACH to the collection at some point. I passed on a nice PASGT the other day for $30 and am starting to have some regrets about the decision. [/QUOTE]
