I just bought some QD picatinny rails for my TW and was pleasantly surprised to learn they are modular. I was able to remove the picatinny rail on one side and attach my MPLS mount. I’m pretty stoked since this will let me to swap ear pro for lights without any tools.

I like the idea of having the Com Tac's over my ears so I can hear communications, but maybe not right up against my head If I want to click out and let my ears cool off, etc. Understandably, I would have no hearing protection at that point, but I'm thinking on the Comms side in regards to this question. Hopefully that made sense. Dang nice setup by the way!!!! |

Not as fancy as some other rigs here, but here's my new helmet setup to replace a MICH 2000
I didn't realize the Revision Viper was cut different from a standard MICH 2001, so I wasn't able to set it up exactly how I planned, and the ear cut outs are a lot smaller than what I thought they'd be. Still fits earpro underneath just fine.

And we can see why that’s bad. Only downside to the unity’s, if the non click doesn’t bother you, is the end of the metal rods where the ear pro slide on aren’t crimped so they can slide off with peltors atleast. It seems they were more designed around sordins with their other adaptor pieces for them. View Quote |

I've found it's better to store them long term down in the deployed position though rather than rotated to the rear, or else the hard wire hangers will get bent and loosen their clamping pressure against my head.

View Quote In the most improbable scenario someone browsing this thread will go ahead and buy the AVS10 you said is available, just so everyone knows it has non-standard 16mm tubes. Non-standard in all ways, the shape of the tube boot is odd and they need to be fitted into the unit by gluing a locating ring onto the front. Also has a third contact for brightness adjustment. I doubt there is anyone but Ed who can collimate those and I would say spare tubes are impossible to come by. DTS posted images of said tube in the stickied tube topic a page or two from the newest. Fascinating stuff anyway! 31 / GPNVG has similar mechanism for the tubes so repair / replacement is hard, though they at least have 18mm tubes. The boot is still odd, so no direct replacement by going to ebay and getting just any tube. There is one available on this side of the pond too. You gotta be either rich and like risks, or just stupid, or all 3, to purchase it. A 30k eur paperweight when anything happens to it is nice but is it nice enough, not for me ;) |
