Tagged for info. I'd like to know also.
And OP, where did you order your PT A-Bravo from? |

Took them almost 2 weeks to ship and they didn’t have the color I wanted or rails. During my search after I bought it, I saw a post or 2 about them not being reliable at times. |

My brother is loaning me his PASGT helmet for now. |

One possible option might be to try to find a surplus ACH in XXL.
Unfortunately, it's not always easy to get these XXL helmets from manufacturers even if they will accept a special order for non-standard sizing as in many cases you have to wait for them to be produced, many companies won't even accept single special orders from individuals. The "advantage" of the ACH is that so many of them have been made over the years that there are some floating around that have been made in XXL sizes that occasionally show up surplus--not as many as mediums and larges, obviously, hahaha, but they're out there, and very often they'll go for fairly cheap as the market is so small for them. ~Augee |

OP, what pads are you using? The stock PT pads suck, IMO. I bought an XL for my buddy to use and he likes the pads I have in it now.

I bought an XL for my buddy to use and he likes the pads I have in it now. the helmet is a little too big for me, but my buddy has worn it a couple times and seems likes it. we aren't oper8ors, but mainly hunting and walking around. oh, the screws are too long to use with a PT helmet, so be mindful of that. YMMV. |
