USGI CVC Shell

from CA$22.00
sold out

The Homebuilder’s Dream

The CVC helmet has protected American crewmen for decades from nasty bumps to ballistic threats (depending on model). Sadly, the full CVC helmet is actually not very well suited outside of a crewman role.. The shell however.. It can be easily assembled into a high cut helmet with a little time and parts.

So what do I need to know?

The shells were made in 3 models. The first and earliest model is fiberglass which is intended only for bump protection. The second model was kevlar for ballistic and bump threats and the third and final model is a thicker kevlar construction.

To upgrade these into a bump helmet, you will need to source the following parts.

  1. A liner (honestly the team wendy clone on aliexpress is inexpensive and works very well, Mr. Misty used one in his 6b47 for years)

  2. ARC rails (dealers choice, these are standardized)

  3. NVG shroud (can be found for cheap on Ebay and just drilled in)

Assembly should be very simple and will leave you with a sturdy helmet that has the most important part (the shell) made in the US! A big advantage is fiberglass is actually harder and lighter than plastic, so even the finest chinese bump helmet will not be as sturdy as your CVC-Highcut conversion.
