This is one place to start. I've not seen one physically but not bad for the price: http://www.epicmilitaria.com/german-m38 ... elmet.html

I got one of the 56-57 size M38's from epic. I have a small noggin' (size 55) and it fits me! So beware when buying, if possible try it on first to make sure it fits your head. The box it was posted in had "made in india".
The one i got sits too high (usual for repro M38's) and the shell is VERY big! (you may find that repro helmet covers will not fit.) Thats what you get with a "budget" M38.

So, if your looking for a spot on copy of a Fallschirm M38, this is not it. If you want a M38 for battling, airsoft or to be "near enough" for static displays this may well be suitable.

Hi Gary
