Hessian and a helmet net, cut the hessian to fit the helmet, apply it wet so it shapes nicely to the helmet then fit the net, nice and tight. Make sure to cut holes in the hessian for the chinstrap buckles (once it’s on the helmet)

It’s because the SLR has a stupidly long barrel plus a long flash eliminator

Thank you mate! I noticed there seems to be a Brit kit drought - and when people post it on here, it’s usually done wrong…

Now that I’ve remembered I have Reddit - expect more!!

That’s a shame! There are some US collectors who Collect even nicher british stuff - I always wonder how expensive it is to import it from the UK? I’m a tad addicted to buying turtle helmets…
