Are Gssh headsets any good?

Those must be newer meals. Definitely don’t recall those in A or B case lol

#

Also don’t know why anyone would pay for those

paying to get dhiarrea or constipation, the only other place would be taco bell

#

Why does taco bell get such a bad rap. I've never had stomach issues eating there

#

Maybe they have different standards in Canada

Taco Bell is mystery meat slop over here

@storm peak @real whale got hits on my meshtastic device over 100km away

#

Just wanted to say I told you so

#

Pretty nuts I can do that with .5 watts

storm peak
#

If your sending voip packets to a public server using your device with network connectivity your argument is moot

#

Because the reality of the situation is that you won't get more than 5km at best with the generic 4 in cellular blade on a cheap medium

#

I'm in an apartment that's 11 floors up with no other buildings or trees coming close. @storm peak

#

And farmland surrounding me.

#

What is happening is other Lora units are repeating my signal. The farthest being 100 km from Woodstock Ontario to Brantford Ontario.

#

And my set up is literally a T-echo with a antenna designed for 915 Lora radios.

#

I brought my radio to work today, and got another few hits. One being 39km in Kitchener and that was at ground level.

#

It's pretty cool though. I haven't been able to see where all the hits are because people turn their GPS off

#

But a few I have seen.

#

Still pretty cool stuff though

prisma lintel
#

I bought a different one. I don't use the one that came with it

#

And what happened recently was a guy driving on the highway bridged me to a lot of connections @storm peak

#

It's why I took it to work and I received a signal 30km at ground level. It has 3 hops though.

#

If you're interested. But it doesn't need to be a long antenna because the wattage is so low. It just jumps between units and there seems to be a lot of units around me

@storm peak got some brand new ear cups

#

Currently building something similar to the repeater in game. This one will have digital mode capabilities using the Igate. Plans are to give it an LTE hotspot for internet access and a 50w amp for the analog system.

#

Still need to install the external ports for antennas but it’s coming along nicely

@marsh flint Hey mate, do you know anyone that has used highcut helmets from PDG ?

#

Or maybe you have tried them yourself

plush topaz
#

Is that a loose screw issue?

#

The only gear you ever need. In bucees we trust

#

What’s everyone’s thoughts on Haley strategic gear I just got the X chest rig an curious what peoples thoughts are on their gear?

plush topaz

#

There’s washers and a spring that holds tension on that part

#

Iirc

plush topaz
#

Ahhh

marsh flint
#

I only hear satisfied comments

compact dagger
#

Thinking to buy it, since fuck the issued helmet because not enough space for comfortable earpro use

#

So im just asking around people that might have come into contact with those to see if that one i saw was a one time fluke of the production or a constant issue

#

But L size is out of stock and will be back in who knows how long, and idk if XL wont be too big for me :/

marsh flint
#

well, finnish guys I know say its good. It's not the lightest one in the market but still good one, what I hear

compact dagger
#

This is the review i was talking about

#

Basically read up TLDR and pics

compact dagger
marsh flint
#

yeah

#

that guy probably got a defective model which can happen with every brand

#

but the return policies tend to be good also

compact dagger
#

sadly all of our gear is packed away for deployment so i cant ask guys that have highcuts to try on theirs so i can see which size will fit me better

marsh flint
#

I'd say deffy go for it

#

"with that price class there might not be better options"

compact dagger
#

my size is 60ish give or take 1, but L size is 56-59 and xl is 60-64, and for the bowl i have rn its an L

marsh flint
#

MICH is also recommended

compact dagger
#

wdym

marsh flint
#

PGD Mich model

#

I'd prolly go with that since I shill low cuts

compact dagger
#

Well, this wont be much different from the issued ones, except side rails and NVG shroud

marsh flint
#

yeah

compact dagger
#

By the looks on the pictures it seems that it's the same adjustment strap mechanism and the back wire tension thing

marsh flint
#

but anyway for a 400 eur helmet thats really bang for the buck what I've heard. I read that review you posted and I didn't find it very catastrophical tbh

#

some bitching 😄

compact dagger
#

Well main thing for me is that 1) It will actually protect from shrapnel and whatnot 2) NVG shroud is properly placed and 3) rails work with the ones im about to buy

#

because for some reason our peltors didnt come with those

marsh flint
#

only bad thing I heard was that one guy had one of those adjustment buckles to be "lifeless" but still has been a good helmet

compact dagger
#

wdym about lifeless adjustment buckles

#

as in not working ?

marsh flint
#

I suppose he meant it was like more stuck than the others

compact dagger
#

ah

#

Well, ill message my SGT tomorrow and ask if they will allow us to take our own helmets on the plane, if so then ill order it and pray that it arrives in time

marsh flint
#

yeah

#

I only heard recommendation, like 3 or 4 guys and they said they are very popular and no blames

#

I'm surprised that it's made in eu with a price tag way under 1k

compact dagger
#

Well, now i've got to find the mount for our peltors, i thought they would be sold online locally but it seems that no

marsh flint
#

those are not typically expensive

compact dagger
#

Any good military related Finnish online-stores you can recommend ?

marsh flint
#

Varusteleka, Viranomainen

compact dagger
#

I doubt that delivery will take a bunch of time

marsh flint
#

I put there that the target country is Latvia

#

and site language english

compact dagger
#

Thanks

marsh flint
#

no problem!

#

glad if helps

compact dagger
#

Bri wtf, camo net is cheaper, even without the 20% discount currently on the site

#

With delivery to Latvia

#

Okay, from now on this will be the sites im buying stuff from

marsh flint
#

hehe

#

Varusteleka is probably the biggest and best site for mil surplus too

compact dagger
#

Quick lookup, and even without the discounts its cheaper to order from finland and deliver it here than to go locally, with the MIL discount

marsh flint
#

haha

compact dagger
#

rn im checking Vira

marsh flint
#

i've never had any issues and if there are one the customer service will really find you a solution

compact dagger
#

And they actually have Lowa boots of my size in stock ? Unheard of

#

And if i'll decide that I don't want to buy a car or apartment after deployment I can order NVG for 10k

#

nice

#

Are they not regulated within EU tho ?

marsh flint
#

I'm not sure, doubt 😄

#

I think those nvg regulations consider american stuff, export ban or something

compact dagger
#

Well yea i know that sending a lot of stuff from US is impossible because of ITAR

marsh flint
#

the Gun Jesus (Ian from Forgotten Weapons) loves Varusteleka. He has his own line of clothes there haha

compact dagger
#

Well I know where i'll be spending my money at

marsh flint
#

haha good

#

I don't think i've ever regretted anything bought there either haha

compact dagger
#

That's what I dislike about our camping/military stores, they have prices set unreasonably high, especially for our average income

#

And they have a lot of fluff/nearly useless stuff on their stores, but not even something as simple as Lowa boots in the sizes most of adults here have

#

so 42-46

#

And god forbid you need like 43-44

marsh flint
#

mmh

#

yeah

#

people might not think that you can get stuff pretty close like from finland

compact dagger
#

yea

marsh flint
#

here are very active people, reservists etc so the demand is also pretty high

#

and those have incredible surplus deals

compact dagger
#

Well I hope it will be like that here, hell, even make deals with Finnish companies to sell stuff here

marsh flint
#

like nearly not used stuff and even brand new with price of used ones

#

yeah I think the nato expansion helps it

lone lark
#

VERIFY MY EMAIL BATTLESTATE pls

marsh flint
#

wrong channel man

compact dagger
#

Everyone will win, the Companies that will profit from people buying here instead of western EU, the local shops that will also get more customers because some actually useful stuff will be sold, and the customer since he will get what could be useful to him

#

I get not selling stuff like NVGs or expensive optics, since gun culture here is just hunting

#

Bro I can even order the filters we get issued at work ???

#

Or at least similar looking ones

#

idk about exact protection

marsh flint
#

ha

#

they also have that live chat on varusteleka that helps if you have issues

compact dagger
#

hopefully wont ever need them

marsh flint
#

yeah

#

ok one guy said he has had gen 1 and gen 3 of that pgd helmet and both were great

compact dagger
#

Good, so hopefully Sarge will know the answer and can just greenlight me

marsh flint
#

hehe

compact dagger
#

Because i need to order soon

marsh flint
#

👍

marsh flint
#

@compact dagger more recommendations to that helmet lol

#

somebody changed the cushionings to his older (2018) but said that newer also ones have better cushionings

compact dagger
#

I'll do a quick lookup on if i can even order armor into Latvia or not

compact dagger
marsh flint
#

they also ship everywhere in europe

#

a lot of K9 products too!

#

"Total Shop is 100% Google translator friendly! Use Chrome browser and choose your language. We ship everywhere in Europe."

compact dagger
#

Neat, thanks again

#

But for now ill stop my spending spree, since this put a small dent in my bank acc

#

And I kinda didn't realise before ordering that they won't be in office between Christmas and New Years

#

So they will continue dealing with orders after 6th Jan

marsh flint
#

Yeah many do that here

#

Especially in a year when you only spend like a couple of paid vacation days and national holidays fill up the rest to get a long vacation

compact dagger
#

Yea understandable, I just actually forgot about no people actually working in stuff like this between Xmas and NY

#

Since stores here are open, even some of the military gear only ones

compact dagger
# plush topaz

Ah, nice, but why does your headset look like its backwards ?

#

I thought mic ports always go forward

marsh flint
#

Those are not mics

plush topaz
#

Those are the lead ports

marsh flint
#

Those are plugs

#

Ye

compact dagger
#

Well yea, i meant the ports for the mic

#

Not the mics that pick up sound from surroundings

marsh flint
#

The mics are facing front

#

Ok

compact dagger
#

Just XPIs that we got have both the sound mics and the port in front

plush topaz
#

There is no mic port on the front

compact dagger
#

Yea I get that now, just at first I thought those look weird

#

Anyhow, I now need to find mountings for the rails and a nice cover for the helmet itself

plush topaz
#

Agilite covers are about an 85% fit

compact dagger
#

Which cover do you have from them ?

#

They have like 8 of them for high cuts

compact dagger
#

Thanks

#

Ill probably end up getting different one, since our commander wants us to put camo on top of our helmets

plush topaz
#

Ya im sure there are ones that fit better

#

I like it because it has a really nice retention cord and lots of loops for tie downs and cabling etc...

marsh flint
#

They have m05, multicam etc.

compact dagger
#

Yea will check it out later

#

First I need to get the helmet delivered, hopefully customs won't stop it, I already did the required signatures and other required stuff for it to be exported from Denmark

compact dagger
#

For the varusteleka cover

marsh flint
#

😄

#

Ask if they have a factory store

compact dagger
#

Doubt they'd sell in small quanitities

compact dagger
#

They make some decent stuff

#

The only barely passable thing they make is the helmet cover

They are a bit pricy. At least in Canada. But disposable?

#

Well it's a minimalist carrier. Not meant to be loaded up. That's what the AVS is for.

#

"the best" to who?

#

Who is a serious user?

#

I just don't see the point in those kind of blanket statements. Professionals, such as myself, have certain preferences and requirements.

#

I have several carriers for different purposes. Currently the one I take on deployments as a sniper, designated marksman, and Avata pilot is the agilite k zero

#

And how I have it set up is perfect for my needs

#

My Lv119 I use for larping at home.

#

It is

#

You're going to sweat no matter what

#

See those qd shoulder straps wouldn't work for me.

#

And first spear tubes aren't big enough with my side plates on. Can't close my carrier

#

You do. And you aren't me.

You see my Point?

Great chat

#

JPC's arent meant for prolonged use, normally its the kind of kit SF cats use to raid objectives

#

like @plush topaz says, thats really meant for the AVS thats why it feels flimsy but it really isnt

#

ive used my JPC 2.0 extensively and it hasnt failed, not just using it for flat range bullshit

#

i normally use AVS and the AVS chest rig these days

#

AVS gives enough support to help with my back since i have a herniated disc atm

Most of my pouches came from a surplus store

#

They get so many of these things in and nobody buys them cause they look at buying like plate carriers

old portal
# gaunt lagoon pray tell why because i actually think the fishing vest is pretty neat

The FLC with full load is loose and baggy when ran without armor so it was a constant battle to adjust in and out of armor. In 02 when I joined we only wore armor/plates at live fire range. Other training just web gear. Then it slowly turned to wearing vest with no plates during all training and with plates at live fires. It then transitioned to always wearing vest/plates during all training so it became best to just direct attach everything to vest

gaunt lagoon
worthy heart
gaunt lagoon
old portal
#

For it to be a somewhat comfortable fit it’s gotta be adjusted just right and any change in underclothing throws it off. Just not a great item imo and pretty much everyone I served with lol

gaunt lagoon
#

i've adjusted mine where it's a tiny bit loose but still comfortable and usable with a tshirt on and then perfect fit with a hoodie/jacket. not perfect but i'm pretty happy with it

#

i'm sure there's better rigs out there but you probably cannot beat this for under $20

been also looking at a TAPS rig i hear those are also good budget options

# plush topaz Been wanting a vampire forever. Is it better to point to the 6 oclock?

I have it facing that way due to having both the Peltor arms, and the Ops-Core Step in Visor attachment hooks up on the top rail.
Doesn't leave room for the S&S M-Ax up top, so I put it back there. It's convenient tbh. It tucks away nice and out of the way next to my counterweight pouch when not in use. When I need it I just swivel it up next to my Comtac and it points perfectly forward. Or up as a umbrella light.

This is not a Vampire though, it's a M300C 500 lumen head. Though now that I have my own NOD's I should probably replace it with a IR or Vampire head.

#

I hardly use my step in anymore in favor of M-Frames. But might take them off and give it a go if I get a IR head. Though I do like how it is now.

I took one with UTS shroud, hopefully it will be better, and when I get to see my issued helmet i'll need to check agian, but im pretty sure that thing has only 1 string that goes around the head, without extra padding its ass

Rear glass should be orange in the right light. Front glass you can tell the brand from the color of the glass, and knurling of the surrounding ocular polymer.

Ideally you want Fuji glass.

Good to go. Front is Qioptic. Rear is either Qio or Fuji, if you could ask him to get a pic of the side of the rear lens, specifically the diopter adjustment then I can find out which it is.

Just wanted to make sure you weren't getting Salvo special lenses.

For 1875 you can't go wrong with that setup. It's well priced, and that Omni 7 looks extremely clean, specs are probably good seems crisp. I can't see the tiny burn marks at all. I say buy it.

#

I've used Omni 7's extensively in 15's, I can vouch for their performance. (This one looks better than the ones I ran for on camera performance atleast) Really solid hitters for Green Phosphor tubes. Can never go wrong with them especially for the cost.

I am running high spec L3 WP's now. But I will be picking up some VII's for a loaner set sometime this year.

Regardless. Send it. Rear Fuji front Qio is still good 2 go.

@plush topaz how do I make the aftermarket picatinny rail on my standard mil-spec plastic handguard not wobbly asf

#

I've thought about adding some sort of a washer disk under the bolts, but I'm not sure if it'll be stable this way. Maybe you have an army hack for me (buying a 300$ aluminum quad rail is not an option, considering my finances and back problems)

#

Sht wrong channel. Anyways

plush topaz
potent monolith
#

The rail itself

#

I'm pretty sure the screws are about the same size as the holes, so they just sit there by force of nature

#

Pretty sure if I try hard enough I can pull out the rail from the guard

plush topaz
#

Then you're missing parts. Or the threads are stripped

#

I hate those handguard rails. They're terrible

#

I'd rather shoot with irons.

potent monolith
plush topaz
#

Ohhhh

#

Got pics?

potent monolith
potent monolith
plush topaz
# potent monolith

The screws should go over the heat shield and into the rail from the inside

potent monolith
#

I'll open it up, wait a sec

#

That's my temporary solution, the improvement is significant, but I'm pretty sure the plastic will melt the second I shoot more than 5 bullets

#

It's just for it to not come off while I'm going about my day

#

As I said, the screws are about the same size as the holes

#

The design is not very human

plush topaz
#

You need washers

#

@potent monolith you can also cut the rail in half

potent monolith
#

Why? I don't see the benefit apart from taking off a few grams

potent monolith
plush topaz
#

I used to cut mine because my hovek wasn't big enough to fit over the rail

#

And didnt grip the handguard properly

potent monolith
potent monolith
#

I have 3

#

Some are bigger and smaller

#

I just use only one, and on my stock

#

Awesome for storage and I have very long hands so shortening the stock is pretty much unneeded for me

#

If I do, my elbows transfer all of the recoil into my liver

#

So then I have to put it away like those WWI shooting stances defeating the whole tacticool CQB ishness

potent monolith
# plush topaz And didnt grip the handguard properly

Btw, @plush topaz doesn't hovek decrease your reaction time? I never had to charge my weapon in a real emergency situation, but during the training we did, my hand always went into the strap because it was so close to the receiver and I either missed a few seconds tinkering around the strap or just disconnected it completely out of frustration and used one point after all

potent monolith
#

It frustrated me so much I just connect it to the front sight now

Although I refuse to use Paracord

Sometimes I really wanna learn to make a game where you can customize your gun this way

plush topaz
#

Dual fuel lights are useful

potent monolith
#

It's just a small pistol light

#

And by chance it's very consistent with the way I grip the gun

#

If I had an m4 or had to use an optic I'd probably opt for something different, but this is almost perfect for me

I doubt this exact model is any better while genuine. Looks like it's hard to make something this small last for a long time. The pressure buttons will fail eventually, it's just a question of either it happens after a year or a year and a half

#

Trijicon acog = trijicon
HS precision HTR 2000 pro = barak
Meprolight m21 = mefro
Meprolight MOR= mefromor

#

And on and on

#

For some reason the new m4a1's are referred to as M5's

#

Along with the meprolight m5
And aimpoint m5

potent monolith
#

In summary, the name Zelda seems to be more of a foreign construct or relic of miscommunication rather than a term commonly used by Israelis today. It’s a good example of how military slang or naming conventions can be misunderstood or misrepresented when taken out of their native context.

ChatGPT's summary

potent monolith
#

4+1 is 5!

Thus, M5

#

A quick google search says it's something to do with logistics and simplification.
Apparently they used to call m16a3's by the name m4, so the only logical continuation is m5
