Yes, it's Duracoat paint; great on firearms, and now helmets!

Awesome, especially since you painted a 1/2 helmet.

Gotta do something about that visor, maybe use the holes for a NOD mount?

I'm thinking about the visor. Now if I could find a NOD mount for cheap, I'd mount it on there in a heartbeat!

Night vision Optical Device, or something like that. We called the ones we used on the aircraft NOGs, NVGs, etc.

The paint looks good, but it looks like they could have done a better job masking it.

You're right, I didn't bother masking it off all that great. It's an old helmet, and I just didn't bother taking the time to make it perfect.
