Helmet "6B26": The Budget-Friendly Way to Start Your Headgear

Helmet "6B26": The Budget-Friendly Way to Start Your Headgear

If you're putting together your first loadout and don't want to drop $200+ on a helmet right away, the Helmet "6B26" at $89 is the most affordable helmet we carry. Here's how it stacks up against the rest of our helmet lineup, and what you should know before ordering.

Where It Sits in Our Lineup

  • Helmet "6B26" — $89. The budget entry point. Same core MOLLE-style shell profile as our other helmets, priced for players who want coverage without a big upfront spend.
  • Helmet "6B47" — $94. Close in price, slightly different shell shape, and the one helmet in our lineup with a purpose-matched cover available (Helmet Cover "6b47").
  • Helmet "TOR V.1" — $125. A step up in price with its own matching cover (Helmet Cover "TOR").
  • Helmet "Altyn" — $215. Our premium option, styled after the distinctive Altyn shell, also with a matching cover (Helmet Cover "Altyn").

One Thing to Know Before You Order

We don't currently carry a cover cut specifically for the 6B26 shell (our covers are matched to the 6B47, TOR, and Altyn shells only). If you want a covered look, one of those three is the better pick. If you're fine running it bare or with your own cover, the 6B26 is a solid, budget-friendly way to check the "helmet" box on your loadout and upgrade later.

Who It's For

The 6B26 makes the most sense if you're building a budget-friendly loadout or just want head coverage in place while you save up for the rest of your kit. Pair it with any of our uniforms — it isn't tied to one camo pattern.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 6B26 airsoft-safe?

Like the rest of our helmets, it's replica gear built for airsoft and milsim use — not rated for ballistic protection.

Can I add a cover later if one becomes available?

Yes — nothing about ordering the 6B26 now locks you out of adding a cover down the line if we bring one in for that shell.

Should I buy the 6B26 or save for the TOR V.1?

If budget is the deciding factor, the 6B26 gets you into a helmet now for $36 less. If having a matching cover matters more to you than saving that difference, go with the TOR V.1 instead.

Final Thoughts

The 6B26 is the easiest way to check helmet coverage off your list without waiting or overspending. Browse the full lineup on our helmets page to compare all four side by side.
