Gun fire protection? What caliber? I don't see any helmet stopping a .45.

[millerusaf]

@Failcard I believe my ACH will stop a .45 round. The .45 is a pretty slow projectile, and even though is has decent energy, it'll get depleted pretty quick on one of these helmets. The protection varies between different hlemet designs, though.

helmets (kevlar) are designed to stop frag from indirect fire and other secondary missiles. the kevlar helmet shown here will NOT stop direct fire from anything larger than a .22. Kevlar helmet is designed for people in impact areas/guard duty/convoys/etc where explosions and secondary missiles (objects propelled from the initial explosion) are a danger and might cause head trauma. all rifle rounds will penetrate, and most pistol. if one of these stops a bullet its purely by luck.

What color cat eyes band is that i am going to get one to wrap around my ACU helmet cover for my replica PAGST. Im thinking its foliage green?

@evansquiddie I was already corrected a while ago. Don't worry about it, Thanks anyways.

@Failcard

Modern helmets will stop most pistol calibers. Google Box O' Truth, and scroll down to the helmet section.

@machinegunmana ive seen a soldier get shot upside the temple with most likely an SVD (in Afghanistan, a long range shot), and received just a concussion and a lump on his head

[cptromero5595]

@machinegunmana i seen alot of soldiers get hit by aks and snipers with the helmet and they lived

@ARjordanMY Thanks for adding to an answer that was already thoroughly clarified. I'm well aware that a .45 ACP can't penetrate a helmet. Even if I didn't truly specify which bullet I was talking about.

[ARjordanMY]

@Failcard he is right.... what a 45. picks up in power it drops in speed.
