FS: Genuine HGU-55 Flight Helmet/Mask - LAST CHANCE!

Post by ExC17load » Thu Apr 21, 2011 3:28 pm

I am selling my old spare Air Force flight helmet. It is basically brand new as I was given a different one when I arrived at my base. It has a brand new mask, clear and smoke visors, leather visor cover and a green helmet bag.

I am asking for $500 out the door, which is a steal based on what I saw on ebay. This would look awesome sitting on a shelf next to your 1:18 jets, or even on its own. This is the real deal and I promise you it is brand new except for a few scuff marks due to being moved from station to station in its bag.

Serious inquiries only and I can provide pics if you so desire. I would do this already, but I dont know how to post them here. PM if interested or send me an email to [email protected].

I know this isnt exactly small scale, but there are a lot of ex military guys and pro military guys on the forum who might be interested in this.

Thanks!

My wife said I was asking too much, so I am reducing the price to $350.00.

Thanks!

You can post pics if you make a photobucket account and upload the pictures on there. Check this link:

$350 definitely is a steal! I wish I could buy it, but my budget is a little tight right now. Good luck with the sale!

Would this be a CE model? Also, is the mask an MBU 12 or 20? I'd be interested. Kindly send me a photo. My email is [email protected]

Thanks,

Anthony

The helmet is not the CE type, though I dont really know the difference between the two. This is the standard Air Force flight helmet, but its in top notch condition except for the minor scuffing.

I believe the mask is the -12, but will verify and get some pictures to you this afternoon. I know the CE model looks cooler, but to me, this would have been the type worn by the pilots flying the wolf pack F-16 and more people wear this one than the other.

I also believe I have the regulator connector piece somewhere as well, which is another part of the overall oxygen system and allows for different applications. If you are interested in that, I will do my best to find it.

I will get some pics to your email this afternoon.

Had one person interested, but suggested eBay where I can make more money. This is the last chance to buy this at forum prices before I put it out on evil bay.

If anyone wants this setup, now is your chance to act!! Make me an offer!!!
