Extraordinaire Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) Just finished painting the ballistic. Tried my best to replicate the real Ops-Core FAST Ballistic in DG2 Urban Tan. The paint used was Krylon Khaki. Painted using a dusting method to let some of the original color show through. Still looking to add an MS2000, V-Lite, and EOG Battery Pouch to the back. Call sign patches made by my buddy Kevin (Leon Kennedy). -Ex Edited August 17, 2012 by Extraordinaire Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Shardik Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 And done. I wouldn't mind an IR union flag at some point. And replace the VIP strobe with a replica. But beside that it's all good. Thoughts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mazor Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Hi all, Some pics of my new SFG helmet Really nice! But that helmetlight needs to be black also to fit the color scheme... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ALX3 Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Thank you. I prefer the surefire light tan in color i also plan to spray some tan/brown krylon paint on the helmet Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kojak Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Anyone using a Contour ARC rail mount should take it apart and put some threadlocker on the center screw. Mine worked its way free while I wore it--luckily I had tethered the camera. Also, now that I have it apart I noticed that the previously useless tilt function is infinitely adjustable if you loosen the two screws on either side of the pivot. I'm thinking of modding mine to delete the center plastic spacer to make it sit closer in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Making the rail mount lower profile would be a good move. It drives me nuts how not low profile the Contour ARC rail mount is. And the home brew solutions I've seen people do to adapt regular Ops-Core mounts haven't been the strongest and most reliable applications from my experience. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
frogfish Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 MightyMints has been using velcro, I'm giving 3M dual lock a shot when I get back home. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 I tried some 3M velcro on mine ... while it wouldn't fly off it didn't seem particularly steady. Running around yielded some shaky footage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
frogfish Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 guess you've never used dual lock, its not really velcro, simmilar in concept but not the same. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ivan le Fou Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Guys, I have a fe questions just to be sure what to buy. I would like to instal a L3G24 on my brain bucket, but there is nothing on the said bucket to mount anything yet. So, in order to be able to instal this L3G24 I would need a FMA cover and FMA NRT. Am I right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
