Super happy with it for a semi budget setup. Awesome. Badass. It’s funny to anyone else when call any of this stuff budget! My new setup.

He was the first first grader I’ve seen with an auto and could actually tell time. |

Finally stepped up to a carbon bump from a 10? yr old BASE jump and needed a little extra give on the ops arms for the cable guides after I resheathed the wires on my helmet mounted Sordins. I have ops core AMPs money, NFMI is best thing ever, but I don't have "spare set of AMPS on my helmet money" like most arfcommers. still waiting on some stuff, old helmet cover and pouch didn't fit super high cut. how things started after a little 3d design and printing in TPU, flexible cable guides snap right in to the amp arms:  Where things ended up:  I'm not really proud of myself, but I think the veins add just a little bit of spice. Also, they are squishy. |

I watched the Garand Thumb video. It got me to thinking. I decided to experiment with some helmet scrim made from some cheap netting I had bought for Halloween decorations a few years back. I’m not sure it’s going to stay, but I have a night hike with some guys this weekend and thought it see how bad it catches on stuff in the woods.

Added an Ops Core Nape pad to my crye nightcap. Game changer for $25 off eBay and ~5 minutes of work. 10/10 would recommend. then saw that bravo six tactical boonie hat get up, and $17 on Amazon later, and two cuts on the back for the counterweight pouch strap/velcro. Love it and waaaayyy less dorky than the nightcap by itself. And ~$300 cheaper than a new setup.    |

I might be going this route soon. |

My biggest hang up with the TW products used to be their proprietary rails which sucked ass in my eyes. The new Arc compatible rails are fantastic. There are also no thru holes on the TW specialist. It's a pretty neat construction process. The only reason why I haven't purchased one for myself yet is because we are hoping to have them issued soon. The Modular Bungee Shroud on the ops core products is the best shroud and retention system available. The Specialists shroud is decent but the bungees or eye hooks as I call them need to go. If it were my helmet, i'd tear those bungees off the second the helmet was in my hands. Given the price point, I'd say just go get it. I don't think you will be unhappy with the purchase. Lastly, I think TW is offering a better "warranty" than ops core. I think the "shelf life" of the TW product is ten years but don't quote me on that. |

When they're coming and what they're going to look like is up in the air. I would imagine they're going to go to an ARC style rail but that's pure speculation. The TW rails suck. |

It’s just that they don’t fit the more common rail accessories. |

Yeah a few years ago I had a Team Wendy Exfil and hated the proprietary rail. Made some accessories a pain. I would like an opscore but it's hard to justify 2x the cost. The new Rail definitely makes it look like a winner in my book. Probably going to order one in a couple weeks. |

Ops-Core RAILINK with FAST SF with modified Ops-Core OEM helmet cover (cut in the back to expose the “Hot Shoe” for the Battery Pack+) and DIY Battery Pack tether cannibalized from pieces of an Irregular Defense bungee kit and leader-wire—I love my dummy cords, and since all power is now supplied through the battery pack, I felt that it was a pretty critical component to keep from getting lost.   ~Augee |

Attached File -Rnvga w/2700fom l3 supergain tubes -Ops carbon fast sf -pt charge pro -Msa sordin axl/rac -battery pack -a few strips of lead wrapped in felt wire loom tape My goal was the lightest setup with metal body dual tubes without getting wierd about it. I did pull my tnvc m300v off the helmet as I never used it. Its too bright in high mode, or has overlap with the pt charge pro in low mode, minus the utility if color options. So I swapped it out. And saved a few oz. |

What Opscore nape system did you use? The ones I see have plastic fittings where they'd attach to a helmet, doesn't look like what you have. |

Super simple, I used a pair of med shears to cut the plastic and a leather man to twist the rings apart. $25 on eBay. @Monkey_Wrench Great info, thanks!!

My last post in this thread was two years ago and not much has changed lol. Replaced a regular vampire head with the Tnvc version and moved to the left with a Variarc, so my non-dominant hand now activates it. Got some amazon iris's. And added Mru hooks and shock cord, because why not. Kinda want to put my Sordins on there, but the only night shooting I've done is suppressed 22.

Just had a NV skeet/trap shoot with some fellow gun enthusiasts. Here's a bunch of the helmet setups. Mine is the bottom rig with the fudd 870  Also, this is the thread link with a short video one of the guys put together: https://www.ar15.com/forums/General/Shooting-with-my-frens-from-the-internet-Night-Vision-Skeet-Shoot-AAR-/5-2734867/ |
