I did love my job, working hard is what K9s do…. I was born for it, I lived for it, and died for it; for my country….but mostly for you.

Don't know which pic your talking about but it's probably a PVS-14 and a BAE thermal.

Anyone else having issues with the Unity Tactical MARK kit with the stock Peltor adapters?
They do not seem to retain the earpieces at all. |

Anyone use a petzl strix light on their helmet? I need something to mount on my TW helmet and this seems like a decent option, just not sure what it takes to get it mounted up. I'm really open to other suggestions at this point though. Just need something.

Much more lo-pro, and waaaaay lighter. |

So the adapters need to be rigged so they won't break?

looking for some help on here... just got my Unity Mark adapters in the mail and hooked them into my Ops Core... a few observations and problems
1) I feel like the retention of the mark adapters isn't all that great. As I believe I read above, they seem to pop out easier than I would prefer on my set of peltor comtacs... do the 3M helmet adapters have more positive retention? Wasn't expecting them to just slip out 2) I had no issues with my Peltors prior to removing the headband and taking them off the stock mount. I put them on my helmet, turned them on, and have a mad amount of feeback in m right earcup... almost like an unshielded wire is getting electronic interference? I cover the mic with my hand and it is a lot lower but still present 3) weirdest issue is I mount and turn on my BNVDs and my right hear cup explodes with buzzing from the autogating buzz from the goggle. I am certain I didn't break the peltors and didn't cut any wires or anything, just wondering if any of you all have experienced this before or if I should contact 3M and see what they say. Thanks guys! |

Well it seems like theres all kind of problems with the unity marks, I think I might just stick with the Peltors.

The rhino II is miles better than the rhino I I had. Very cost effective upgrade.

I got in the shop and started tearing apart my helmet and some Leights.
Cut the metal band and leads and removed all my helmet rails. Theres about 1.5" of metal band drilled & double bolted under the rail now. I rewired and tucked the wires back up. Everything function checks and fits tight with no movement. I think it came out pretty clean. Attached File Attached File The only thing I did notice is the chin strap bands do tend to get inbetween the muff and my ear a little. They are flat against my face so it's not really effecting much. How do you guys get around this? |
