Description

West German BGS Helmet by Schuberth – Size 56, D.M.L. No.14

This is an original West German BGS (Bundesgrenzschutz) steel helmet, marked by Schuberth-Werke and stamped “Goedgekeurd D.M.L. No.14.” The liner is clearly labeled with size “56,” and the rim bears the code “VB56 1SLN.” Featuring a classic Cold War-era profile, the helmet includes its original liner and flathead screw mount at the crown. The olive-drab finish and utilitarian suspension system reflect its issue for post-war border and security forces. A distinctive example of mid-20th century German protective gear, ideal for military collectors or historical displays.


🔍 Condition:

In good vintage condition with visible signs of age and use. The shell shows areas of scratching and scuffing, particularly along the rim and outer surface. Interior liner and chinstrap exhibit moderate wear but remain structurally intact. Please review photos for details.
