I have the Gentex HGU-33 with the passive ear protection installed and
belive me it is quite! But you can get ANR installed in the Helmet. It
also has first rate communication equipment installed and can be
painted the way you want it.

I had to save my pennies for it, but when it comes down to it what is
your head worth? Gentex is truly the 1st class helmet, you get the all
the great quality ear protection and communication set up.

Can anyone recommend a very lightweight helmet that has built in ANR
or that can be retrofitted with it? Something similar to the light
skiing helmets folks are wearing or perhaps something like a hockey
type of helmet (paint it black and look Delta).

Thanks.

The Army GBU-56 (army surplus?) is pretty darn light weight. Has clear and
gray shields and it looks cool.
