Swedish M26 Helmet
Picked up a Swedish M26 helmet today that is in great condition only it's missing the liner. Figured that shouldn't be too tough to do but Sweden apparently isn't popular enough for them to be made and sold. Did all the usual searches but came up empty. Helmets are around inexpensively but no liners. These are a three piece leather type. It has the metal bands that are held to the helmet with push rivets. If anyone knows of a source, please let me know.

Interesting helmet. They appear on eBay (e.g. Swedish M26 Helmet With Liner And Chinstrap Ship Worldwide | eBay) but postage isn't cheap. Probably be less just for the liner. Good luck.

My son-in-laws company is based in Sweden and he has a lot of contacts there. He's going to ask around. Probably my best bet at this point.

Probably more of a 'not being released by Sweden' thing than anything else. Lotta daft export rules in the EU too. A helmet liner could be restricted for civilian sale. Dunno for sure, but I've seen some really silly rules about European milsurp stuff we North Americans don't consider.
E-Bay gives money to the anti-firearm ownership gangs.
