Sorry I'm not retarded enough to be banging my head on things, like you

@@AFOPatches Got'em

What a weird thing to complain about😂 it looks better well taken care of in my opinion..😍

The mount that I use is a knockoff of the SureFire M75 mount. I think I got it on ebay or Aliexpress. It works pretty well since it doesn't need to hold up to recoil or anything like that.

RangerWrap

Haven't released them yet. They're part of the December drop so they'll be available within the next week or so 👍

@@AFOPatches Awesome, thank you!

For the nod? Ranger Wrap

@@AFOPatches thanks for the response But on the older setup up it looks like you have tape on the helmet it’s self in the desert night camo pattern

I didn't mention it in the video but I had a similar issue. My adapter was a rubber mallet. Just gotta muscle it in there, but once it finally clicks in it's very solid.

@@AFOPatches what i meant was i have a gen one norotos mount pn 1723010 tatm mount. It is simply a diff footprint than my wendy bump mount. But the Rhino 2 fits no problems?

OH, my bad. Totally misread that. Yes, you'll need a shroud adapter kit for the TATM to fit in a bracket-style shroud like on the Wendy bump.

@@AFOPatches can you point me in the right direction? or does the rhino 2 mount straight to a wendy exfil bump?

Rhino 1 or Rhino 2 will mount directly the Wendy bump. If you want to go the adapter route you can pick up a Norotos Universal Shroud Adapter kit from a site like TNVC or Own the Night

I store two extra lithium AAs in my counterweight pouch. That's more than 40+ hours of use for my 14. That's 4-5 nights worth, then if for whatever reason I use those up, then I can take the batteries out of the strobe and probably get another solid night or two of use. I have like 4 other Lithiums in my bag too. Parasitic battery drain is not as severe as you think it is.

@@AFOPatches well.. honestly, I wouldn’t worry so much about the batteries as much as the live ammo your using as a “counterweight”… Dude, you can go to an Ace Hardware and buy like pine-derby car weights or even weights that are used for balancing your tires, those are actually really good cuz of the sizes they come in… (You didn’t mention if your running just bump helmets or ballistic, all I know is, you couldn’t pay me enough money to where a bump helmet (hell, even a ballistic one) w/ live ammo stored inside of it..) But if you really want a better way for battery storage, I’d use the GMR Gear ParaSight Battery Caddy.. takes up less space & you can still keep your elastic holder along with the system built into the Agilite Helmet Cover.. One other thing, that clip you’re using for your NOD’s… I’d ditch that and just get literally anything else.. Unobtanium Gear has the RATS (my personal favorite, but there’s other’s too. Kinetic Consulting has the NERD, Microbat Systems has the Tentacle, Costa Defense has the SRS… I mean there’s tons of better options that physically mount to the helmet.. I promise you, that clip will eventually fail. Straight up snag-hazard, you clip 1 tree or bush for instance, while they’re stowed up, and you can kiss those goodbye.. I’m just sayin’.. BUT PLEASE, get rid of the live ammo.. not only a danger to yourself, but to other’s as well. Hope you’re open to constructive criticism.

Brother. 9mm BULLETS. Like...projectiles, not cartridges LMFAO. It's not live ammo. It is literally just lead. I reload. I know what I'm doing. I've also done several drop tests with my retention clip and it has worked just fine. Did you actually think that I'd store live ammo in my helmet? How smoothbrained do you actually think I am?

Still weighs less than a ballistic equivalent

Putting night vision on any helmet is going to make it heavy bro. Just get a stronger neck.

@@AFOPatches nah I go with a wrapped Shemagh ! Rural! Day and night! When it’s urban! IT’s ambush or hit N run! Bump helmet will do fine! Because it’s light weight! Night vision will get you knocked off! Especially since people are wearing Cloaks! Semper Fi and Shalom Aleichem! Thanks for responding! O and as for the neck! It’s titanium and I’m doing 20 pull ups so I’m not 2 old yet I guess! Lol 😂

Correct, I am not in the military. Astute observation. I hike and shoot in this helmet regularly and have had no issues with the weight or balance of it. Consider coping.

I've used my TW a lot since I posted this video. I think it's leagues better than the ATE in just about every metric. With the pads from the ATE in the TW helmet, it's even more comfortable. Its very stable. The BOA retention system helps a lot with that.

@@AFOPatches I appreciate it - thank you!
