FAST helmet flare on an ACH? OPSCORE ACH ARC Rail review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- Hey everybody welcome back to another Muddy review! Today we are talking about the ACH ARC rails from OPS-CORE / GENTEX. These ACH ARC Rails came to us from eBay and the seller Tacticaltraders.
I paid 55.00$ USD for the rails
Taxes were 4.54$ USD
Shipping was Free
The total was 59.54$ USD to the door.
A link to the Rails can are here (new link same seller I really should get a commission LOL):
www.ebay.com/i...
I really like these rails and the seller is great, I have purchased from them before and will again. I have these on a real ACH but would throw these on a good quality real thickness Airsoft replica with zero hesitation as they are an excellent addition to my ACH and look great on it. You get FAST helmet ergonomics on your full ear helmet which is pretty rad in my opinion.
Thanks for watching and I hope to keep this channel chugging along and growing strong in 2022, take care.
Awesome review.
however, the link in the description does not go anywhere :(
Thanks for the comment Daniel and glad you liked the review, also appreciate the heads up on the dead link. Check it now...they just updated the link to a new one. I updated the link in the description. I'm in no way affiliated with the seller just did business with them and they have done me right to date.
Will these fit on the older mich helmets I bought one that I'm almost sure is real from an antique store. Also anyway to confirm its real (military standard). Its the older type with the fome disk padding and the chin strap only connects to one point on each side of the helmet
If the helmet doesn't have the four screws connections it wouldn't work. But if it is a real MICH 2000 it should work. The screw pattern on the MICH and ACH is similar if memory serves if not identical.
The screws for the rails fit in the holes intended for the chin strap?
On this ACH? Yup that is exactly his they mount.
@@Muddy_Reviews then where tf would I put my chin strap? 😂
@@Boomy2nicce still mounts into the helmet exactly the same way. You are bolting the Arc rails onto the helmet via the same holes that you screw the chin strap into.
What do you use the Rells for
For lights and other rail accessories. You aren't going to to be putting your comms on these like an Ops-Core or other high cut of course because of the low ear.
Does it come in ABU pattern
Not sure what you are asking what comes in ABU. There is a Helmet cover for the ACH helmet that comes in the ABU pattern called the Ops-Core ENVG helmet cover that has ARC rails attached to it.

@@Muddy_Reviews What is the difference between a helmet and a helmet cover
@@jrotccolorguard Helmet is the physical Kevlar helmet, the cover is the fabric you put on the helmet in order to add camoflauge to the helmet.
How would I be able to install some rails on a pt bravo half shell helmet
The Protech PT Bravo Half Shells have a 1913 Picatinny rail that screws into the side of the helmet. This would allow you to mount any light that comes with a Picatinny rail mount to them. I have seen ARC rails added to the PT Bravo as well but this would necessitate drilling new mounting holes onto the PT Bravo and bolting the ARC rails to it. I will whole heartedly admit the ones I have seen loom absolutely FIRE and I have been very tempted to source a PT Bravo and do this just for GP.
Mine has a screw in the front spot and right where the rail starts to curve could i make a screw hole in the rail to fit it. Also how thick is your real helmet.
I honestly wouldn't recommend it, you would ruin the rails and they wouldn't be good for what you want them for. As for helmet thickness I will have to measure that tomorrow.
Are these worth adding on ACH helmet I'm thinking on getting set for my gentex ACH and a new h nape from ops core I ordered 4d pads I have ACH arc rails made by ops core I bought from hcc tactical and a ops core VAS shroud, I bought 4d pads and I have ACH improved headlock h nape from ops core as well, what is the point of arc rails on a ACH helmet, I get the idea for high cut helmet. I have bags of ops core accessories from hcc tactical I bought, and shrouds, and h napes from ops core I only bought em because why not have spares.
It is the exact same as with a high cut, mounting lights, and the like except comms. I like them well enough, and they made adding a light considerably easier.
Can I wear a helmet cover with these on ?
Yup, you just need to install the cover first and then put a small.hile for the screws in the cover.
will it work with the MICH 2001?
I don't know for certain, but if the screw pattern is the same I would think so.
Will they fit on a pasgt helmet?
If the acres holes match up it is possible but I wouldn't count on it.
Can you try a XL ACH? THX
Don't have an XL to try it on otherwise I would love to. I would think they will work as they package specifically says for all ACH sizes.
@@Muddy_Reviews NOPE. The old version of arc rail can't fit on a XL ACH. The side hole of the helmet is too far from rach other for arc rail to install.
ops-core can kiss my ass. What kind of for all ach is this?
The helmet is the true USGI ACH. The arc rail is also true ops-core product, definitely not a replica.
@@user-kk1xd9ps2h Well that's a bummer, wish I had an XL to check mine on. But the Gentex/Opscore website does say it is meant to fit the bolt pattern of the Gentex ACH helmets S-XL. Mine is an MSA TC2000 helmet and size Large. The rails fit perfectly. What does the inside of your rails look like? I have an Instagram of the same name as here..shoot me some pics of what you are working with if you have IG and I can compare it to mine if you like.
Will this work with a helmet cover on?
Yup, you put the cover on then the rails., gonna poke holes on the cover but it works.
Yea it looks so much better with an aftermarket cover, I’m really happy with the way mine looks.
Lmao I just asked this too. Thanks for the insight
