FIELD NOTES

New United Shield PASTAC Ballistic Tactical Helmet — Black, Level IIIA Label, Sizes Small to XL

New, unissued United Shield International tactical helmets in black, with a textured shell, front peak, four-point harness, chin cup, and snap-closure chinstrap. Some are still in their original packaging. Each helmet’s inside label gives its model, size, lot, serial number, and date of manufacture, along with a printed protection level of IIIA. We have all four sizes, so choose yours below.

SIZING (manufacturer's published chart)
Measure head circumference with a soft tape about 1 inch above the eyebrows and ears.

  • Small: 50–56 cm (19"–22")
  • Medium: 54–59 cm (21"–23")
  • Large: 57–64 cm (22"–25")
  • X-Large: 61–66 cm (24"–26")

Ranges overlap. If you're between sizes, choose the larger size. Fit also depends on harness and pad adjustment. Source: United Shield International helmet size chart.

Please note: The helmet in the photos may not be the exact one you receive. You’ll get the same model and size, new and unissued, but the manufacture date, lot, and serial number will differ. Email PottstownArmyNavy@gmail.com with your size if you’d like a helmet still in its original packaging or photos of the exact helmet.

Verified Info (from the sample helmet’s label):

  • Maker: United Shield International
  • Model: PASTAC
  • Protection Level (as printed): IIIA
  • Color: Black
  • Harness: Four-point harness with chin cup and snap-closure chinstrap
  • Sample label date: 05/17 (May 2017). Dates vary by lot.
  • Condition: New, unissued

Condition Note: New and never issued. Some are in original packaging. Helmets removed from packaging may show light storage marks.

Safety Notice: These helmets are new, but they’re aged stock. A ballistic helmet’s performance can’t be guaranteed after years in storage. The Level IIIA marking is the maker’s label, not a promise about how any particular helmet performs today. United Shield’s published ballistic warranty for its helmets is five years from manufacture, which has ended for helmets made in 2017. Sold as collector, display, costume, and airsoft items, not as certified protective equipment. Buyers must be 18 or older and legally allowed to own body armor.

SHIPPING RESTRICTIONS
Due to state and local laws, we cannot ship ballistic helmets to Connecticut, New York, Illinois, or California. Orders to those states can't be completed online.

We also cannot ship to P.O. boxes, to addresses outside the United States, to military addresses abroad (APO/FPO), or to freight forwarders.

Free local pickup is available at 229 E High St, Pottstown, PA 19464. Call (610) 323-8000 with questions before you order.

By purchasing, you confirm that you are 18 or older and legally allowed to own body armor where you live. Federal law prohibits convicted violent felons from possessing body armor.

GOOD TO KNOW
Is this real military issue?
Yes. Items in our Genuine Surplus section are government or military issue, not reproductions. We describe origin, era and condition from the markings and our own research. If a listing also offers a reproduction version, that option is clearly labeled “Repro.”
Why does surplus sometimes have storage marks or a smell?
A lot of surplus spent years in military warehouses. We note anything significant in the condition details. Most storage odors fade with airing out or washing; follow the care label where there is one.
How does military sizing work?
Military clothing is often sized by chest or waist plus length, like “Medium-Regular.” Check the Size & fit chart when there is one, or call (610) 323-8000 and we’ll measure the actual item for you.
Can I return it?
Genuine surplus is final sale, so please check the photos, condition notes and size before you buy. New merchandise and items labeled “Repro” are returnable under our return policy. Either way, if something arrives damaged or isn’t as described, contact us within 3 days of delivery and we’ll make it right.
How fast does it ship?
Orders ship from our Pottstown store within 1–2 business days. You can see your exact shipping cost in the cart before you pay.
Can I pick it up instead?
Yes. Choose “Pickup” at checkout. It’s free, and we’ll call when your order is ready at 229 E High St, Pottstown (Mon–Fri 9:00–5:30, Sat 9:00–4:00).
