chillindrdude Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 my "no-frills" ACH/MICH helmet Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Titleist Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 No frills isn't such a bad thing, looks utilitarian and well...practical. Nice. I can't wait to get my real MICH. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KALASH69 Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 Good old PASGT, not too much special. Have the arm for the NVG too, but i have to adjust it. enjoy. Without Goggles: Goggles: With Goggles: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KALASH69 Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 (edited) continued: i do need to put some velcro down so the strap doesn't twist up and out like that. Any suggestions? Soon as i fix up the arm, ill post some pictures with the mount and the arm too. (please excuse the double post, but i filled up the post before this one with pictures) Thanks for looking, -Kalash Edited November 17, 2007 by KALASH69 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

chillindrdude Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 is that a real PVS14? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Titleist Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 I'd wager to say so. Considering medic is currently in service. I'm looking to buy my PVS sometime in december if things pan out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Carter Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 I'm assuming all of these Norotos mounts are replicas, but where do you people get them? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
felts27 Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 I'm assuming all of these Norotos mounts are replicas, but where do you people get them? yeah smae here does someone have a link to where we can get them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Titleist Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 (edited) I'd wager to say that Medic's is the real one, since he was selling a few real ones a while ago. The replica's can be had from BoomArms where I got mine, or UNCompany. But be warned, no one carries the black one in stock anymore, just the tan model. Which is no biggy if you intend to paint it. But if you're hung up on the black one then you'll probably only find it second hand or to get the real one, which is absurdly priced above 300 bucks. I got mine on saturday, thanks USPS, but I'll say this, the G&P is built really really well, and I even plan on installing a real PVS on it, so it's definitly well made.

christhesecond Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 If you want the black one then just fork out the extra $20 for the rubbish helmet and mount combo. http://www.wgcshop.com/pcart/shopper.php?i...G-399_srch_usmc Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But regardless you're right I'll probably run a paracord lanyard in case it flops off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But regardless you're right I'll probably run a paracord lanyard in case it flops off. mine only binded up when it was mounted to the helmet. the curve of the norotos mount doesn't follow the MICH exactly, so some warping took place and made the mechanism sticky Quote Link to post Share on other sites
