Don Jorge:
For a helmet dont go thinner than 14g. It will get dented...and it might ring your bell more than necessary. I personally am going for a 12g top and 13g sides bascinet and it cost about 150 plus shipping...blackened with a hinged visor. Accdntprone on the Armor Archive makes cheap starter SCA helms while you save up for a nice $350+ helm. He also makes a great helm with brass cross for about 225 which is nice!

--- Quote from: Thorsteinn on 2014-02-06, 01:46:01 ---In the West Kingdom you can fight in a 16 ga helm. It's just not recommended.

Where do you live again? I can link you to your Kingdom's Heavy Combat, Rapier, and Cut & Trust rules if you like.

That would be much appreciated.
I actually am not sure what my helms gauge is.
It was bought by my father on eBay. All I truelly know about it is that it's iron and isn't 1 solid ingot or piece.
How can I find out what gauge it is?
Btw I live in P.A. Eastern kingdom.

90% sure it's a GDFB Sugarloaf, I'd need to see it up close to compare though. If so, it's 16 gauge.

It's similar to mine but not the same.

Mongolianish Helm with Drape ($250)
http://forums.armourarchive.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=168658&p=2566762#p2566762

His blackened bascinet I can't seem to find on AA but he told me about it via FB and its 150 and has a center hinge grill.

Again not living history stuff or nice finish but great solid helmet you can fight safely in!
