Introducing the Bundeswehr West German Army Airborne Paratrooper M-71 Helmet, a piece of military history that stands as a testament to craftsmanship and durability. This specific model, the M-71, was inspired by the U.S M-1 helmets and has been adapted for the typical German paratrooper needs including the distinctive four screws for securing the liner. The helmet boasts an anti-reflective paint finish aimed to reduce visibility to the enemy while on missions. The condition of this helmet is noted as very good, considering its history and usage.

The M-71 helmet features a comprehensive leather liner system, described as a nine-finger version, which ensures a comfortable fit for the wearer. The chinstrap, a vital component for any paratrooper helmet, is made of green leather and designed in a 4-point double Y style with metal buckle and snap - nearly identical to the WWII M-37 German chinstraps.
