    Can you shoot a link to the rails you used? I ordered some expensive Team Wendy’s and they do not fit unfortunately

      I pulled the rails off of an old Chinese high cut I got back before I knew anything about Chinese products. I’d say that any reputable rail would do fine

    Where can you buy a CVC liner? Specifically the Bose one, but any will do. Also, are they ITAR?

  • @lamppost904

    any good tips to know where and how to correctly drill a centered hole (since they lack a midseam) for your nvg shroud? cause thats really the only one new hole or 3 you'd be adding. Thats my only concern as some cvc variants are thicker and maybe easier to ruin than if doing the same install on a ach or whatnot.

    • @stevenrosa80
      @stevenrosa80 2 роки тому

      Use measuring tape (nylon) to draw a vertical center line, line up your 3 hole shroud and sharpie where your holes line up

      I have contacts. The rails will accept pretty much any configuration.

      He didn’t, a CVC is shaped like that, all he did was add the rails

  • @KERSEY151

    Could you put a regular high cut cover on it too?

    • @PA_LF
      @PA_LF  Рік тому +1

      Probably not. The CVC is much wider than your normal helmet. The back also comes down lower.

  • @cheesetownboatrepairmainte2101

    Do you think the screw holes compromise the integrity of the ballistic protection?

    • @PA_LF
      @PA_LF  Рік тому +1

      Probably not. Dudes have been hit multiple times in the helmet by fragments and bullets and it still held its strength. Also, the armor isn’t brindle like ceramic where a crack would compromise the whole thing. Shit, even ceramic can take multiple hits. So, no it doesn’t effect the strength of the armor.

    • @IcepickLobotomy11

      Should only compromise a very small area around the drilled hole. The chance is so small that if you get hit there God probably wanted you to die or you’re just plain unlucky.
