Be advised: amazon rails are hit or miss on QC. Mine had too much curve and flattening against the helmet led to the dovetail accessories not sliding through the slot. Order from the US distributor. They appear to have cloned the rail better.

God I feel old. We used baklavas with the standard webbing. The snaps were always a issue and NVGs were 2nd gen headache inducing green soup garbage.

No joke. None of us ever considered counterbalancing for NVGs. As inventive as we typically were with that kind of thing, I'm surprised. Just develop neck muscles and enjoy the headaches ha.

You should check out those one-piece helmet pads for CVCs, that's what I've used since 2019 with no problems. They're black and the inside material visible from the top almost looks like bubble wrap.

it’s good to modernize the ACH helmet. but for basic safety, and for a typical civilian who will use the helmet just for protection, it is good to retain the ear cover for additional protection…

@Nperez1986 Жыл бұрын

You can also do this to the ECH helmet for a higher NIJ rated protection :)

@bobsagetbillboard1876 7 ай бұрын

If you can find an Eagle industries helmet cover they are excellent accessories for the ACH. In terms of night vision mounts I like the Norotos TATM mount with the 1 or 3 hole shrouds and the Wilcox L3 G10.

For the rails I REALLY recommend going for only well vetted American companies. Most of the cheap foreign ones dont fit a majority of attachments and if they do they break very easily.

These old school helmets are perfect for high intensity combat situations such as trench warfare. In large scale war breaks out between the nations, M1 Steel Helmet, ACH and ECH works better than high cut designs like FAST.

I agree but i’m a bit curious on how the Fast Helmets arent recommended?

@@idiotdoulbeo5high cut helmets offer less protection around your ears, which is more of a concern when you are expecting a lot of indirect fire or other shrapnel delivery methods. There's a reason the Army still issues full-sized helmet like the ACH, ECH and IHPS

@louiesouthgate8347 10 ай бұрын

The ACH is great but something bothers me with arc rails generally in my own opinion they make the helmet stick out a bit more in a combat setting, back when I was deployed we use these surefire lights that attach to the side of the helmet sometimes they suck but low profile.

@SergioHernandez-zv5wc 2 ай бұрын

If you cut it so it’s more like a high cut that eliminates the width issue. Also puts it within the weight range of an actual high cut.

I'm curious what would people mount on the sides? An IR spot light or camera or somthing else? and then you need to offset the weight.

Audio devices are one type of attachment that would go on the sides.
