The Advanced Combat Helmet (ACH) Mods - Redefining Issued Equipment (Episode 5)

Показать описание

If you find yourself in a unit that requires the use of this ACH and does not allow the use of an aftermarket ballistic helmet don't stress it there are a couple of mods that you can make to this helmet so that it is more comfortable and more functional.

Oregon Aero Helmet Pads & Chin Straps and the Ops Core Chin Strap are the two mods that you can make to the helmet for the comfort piece. Both companies have exceptional products. The helmet pad system is like putting a tempur-pedic bed around your head, and the ops core chin strap wont itch and scratch like the standard issue one it comes with. We highly recommend making these mods because they are superior to the issued components and will make your life easier.

When it comes to the helmet covers there are better helmet covers on the market but if you are required to use the issued helmet cover we recommend adding velcro to the front, sides, and back of the helmet to help give the helmet cover a more adaptable sense of purpose.

Indeed Oregon Areo pads and kits are the cat's meow. I do also recommend them.

You should consider the team wendy harness. It's amazing.

I bought a Velcro kit for my helmet from shellback tactical and it was junk. Peeled off with patches, super thin and didn’t stick well with accessories. Velcro started separating from the adhesive for no reason. So I went to Walmart and bought the $3.70 Velcro kits from the craft aisle and custom cut my own Velcro kit, and it stuck better and held accessories on better than any of the online kits…….. and it’s stuck good, doesn’t seem to be going anywhere.

One suggestion: take a permanent black marker and color out the brand name on the band. Thanks for the video.

Any experience with the 4d helmet pads vs the oregon aero ones? Anytime I've heard anyone talk about the 4d ones i've always heard that they were absolutely the best, and they are a little cheaper too.

Man if i would have known about putting counter weights on my Kevlar and mitch helmet it would have saved me a lot pain both figuratively and literally. Putting those old school NVGs when i was the Poggiest of PoGs then when I was a scout. It sucked that it gave you neck pain and headaches, not including how it used to till your helmet forward.

Too bad the Army was or is such an ass when it comes to making improvements to your gear.
