Some hemets are tinned, some are not. Difficult to say what is 'normal' and I am *very* wary of making generalisations along the lines of tinning/silvering=officer's equipment since so much stuff gets tinned and silvered. There are other considerations (fashion, the belief that it might prevent corrosion etc) that are equally, or even more, valid.<br>

I do worry about those cheekpieces, though.<br>
