I just did a little search, and found steel pots USGI type in the price range of $20-$89.  Helmet liners with poor webbing, not much.  Have seen a steel pot with decent liner with straps in the $20-$30 range, at gun shows.  In the 80s when the steel pot was replaced with the Kevlar helmet, literally millions of these were suddenly surplus.  john
