I’ve got an AR upper for it that I use at my ranch rifle. In my area it’s cheaper and more plentiful the .300 BLK and will do a number on everything from coyote to hog. According to my finely tuned recoil measurement apparatus, AKA my shoulder, it’s got slightly more felt recoil then 5.56 62gr. Plus it has more muzzle energy then .300*.
Are there any slide upgrades you can purchase for the P320 instead? That may be cheaper and let you have more options. For my Glock I have a Unity Tactical that lets me easily swamp out a rmr for a delta point pro. I’m not too familiar with the P320 as a whole I just have a M17 for fun.
Which furniture set did you use? I recently swapped back on a honey-colored Polish laminate LHG in place of the steel AMD-65 piece that I was using - I keep swapping them (and the pistol grips) back and forth every few months or so just because I like fucking.around with it.
If you want to get into the helmet game with a reputable helm that offers ballistic protection and modern features get a DH-132B. Can get them for $200-300 off Ebay.
Anything you can drill a mount to can mount NODs. I will say drilling into the shell of a DOT one will probably technically render it out of compliance. That being said anything you can stick the mount on should be fine. I use a ProTech skateboard helmet.
there are none that i'm aware of. military will use normal helmets with added mount (and they don't care about DOT compliance), LE has no use for night vision on a DOT helmet at all. the old school way was to use a bucket helmet, balaclava or gaiter with PVS-7 on a head strap kit.
Thanks, I think I'll start by attaching a mount to an old DOT helmet and see how it looks. Mostly need it to appear compliant from a distance, don't think anyone will be looking at it too up close.
You would have to be next level bored ( or small town, so still bored ) to pull someone over just to check the cert on their helmet. That's some Maryland or Virginia level of boredom.
Most modern helmets can reliably stop pistol rounds and even certain rifle rounds.
You either didn't read what I wrote or you didn't comprehend it. Try again.
Ballistic helmets are great if you're prone with your face in the dirt, and shit is coming down on top of you. Otherwise it doesn't cover much, look how much of the head is exposed when standing upright.
Why? You'd be just as served setting that way more than a few hundred dollars on fire. I'm almost positive that the people who think they need a ballistic helmet have never worn one, and don't know what they're for. They see them in videos and shit and think that it looks cool but it's such an honest to god waste of money if you don't actually need it.
Wearing 1.5-1.7kg plus the weight of NODs on your head is not the most convenient thing to do long term. It's a literal pain in the neck.
Time to get those neck gains bro
