They only have V Lite's at the moment. I haven't seen the manta's

 

They keep pulling it off the site. It's there sometimes. I got one from them but noticed after I had ordered that they were taken off the site. I've seen them on there since though. Just keep checking back. Maybe it's a supply thing.

Almost done....

 

This started out as the TMC Airframe but slowly I've been making some changes. I like this helmet a lot and it's different from all the FAST helmets out there now. Although I do have a FAST ballistic replica which I love too.

Here's a PM I just sent about them, they are are modified PVS-5Cs.

 

"My teammate (guy on the right) is the one who did it. He would have to give you the real scoop on it, but here is the gist of it:

 

- PVS-5Cs, can't be the A model, needs the Wilcox PVS-7/14 style objective lens. Stripe away everything but the tubes/lenses assemblies

- ANVIS LPBP, has to be rewired completely (turns out there is a circuit board inside, not as easy as he thought it was gonna be)

- N-Vision dual PVS-14 adapter, tube/lens assemblies slip right in.

- LEMO connector to match the LPBP one, solder power downleads from the tubes to it. "

Now with "realstic battle damage". The scar is from a sniper pellet........ (I think) I only noticed at the end of the weekend, when I wore the helmet for about 15 hours straight.

I'm going to re spray as I don't like the emerson factory finish but I need some more khaki/tan krylon.

 

EDIT: Changed the grammer and sentance structure as it was confusing.

How effective are they as actual NODs?

 

Very good, the PVS5s we got were sitting in storage for the past two decades so their tubes are all in fantastic shape. For comparison, those Sightowl gen 2 monoculars use PVS5 tubes but with lots of hours on them and iffy commercial non-milspec lenses. I've owned a Sightowl Gen 2, ITT PVS-14, and this set up. The Gen 3 ITT was obviously the clearest image/best amplification, but for airsoft this custom set up is more than ideal.
