Any WW2 Helmet Experts out there???

Raupleminze
Hey Guys,
I am looking to display a couple helmets in my office and was wondering if anybody out there knows a lot about them or is into re-enacting. I would like to find quality reproductions of both the D-day American 101st Airborne helmet withe the netting and burlap, and a Waffen SS helmet. Does anybody know a good place to get these? I really dont want to take out a home equity loan and buy originals. I am just looking for quality reproductions that will look nice.
Thanks in advance,
Brian

    Looks like there inventory is a little limited on the helmets. They only carry WW1 and early WW2 (m35) styles.

    Check out this site.
    They sell originals but mostly repro. A lot of re-enactors use this company. They have a lot of info on helmets and uniforms.
