Gunfighter Helmets

MICH - High Ear Cut


Made in the USA
(Berry Compliant)

Note:  Export of Helmets with Rails and/or NV Shrouds from the U.S. requires an export permit


IMPORTANT: Blunt Trauma Protection

All our helmet models include the Advanced Combat Helmet (ACH) Blunt Trauma Protection Pad System

0.5" or 0.75" or 1.0" thick pads of engineered impact protection to cushion your skull from impact.

ACH blunt trauma pads in Helmet

Many other helmets look the same on the outside, but have the older generation nylon / leather / open cell foam interior suspension - NOT up to modern standards.

If it says "universal fit", "comfort fit" or "standard fit", or other than ACH blunt trauma protection pads, you are missing critical protection for your brain.

These older systems can be fine on comfort, but offer MUCH less blunt trauma protection on impact.

Helmet Fitting

You want your helmet to:

  1. be snug on your head so even without the chinstrap, so you can nod your head and have it stay stable

  2. ride just above your eyebrows

  3. have the chinstrap comfortable, but snug

So, before adjusting the chinstrap, experiment with different pad configurations inside the helmet.

Note that chinstraps often come loose from the factory:

  1. tighten up the sliding plastic buckles on all 4 straps

  2. if needed unscrew the bolts to move to the next bolt hole grommet to tighten up

  3. in extreme situations you could tighten up the helmet with thicker ACH pads, or

  4. at a shoe repair or upholstery shop, you could add another grommet to tighten the chinstrap even further. You can do it yourself on the rear 2 straps just by folding the grommets over on the stap to tighten it up about an inch, and burning a new hole through the grommet with a soldering iron (so you don't have to add a new metal grommet).
