anyway the pix are nice, but it doesnt show how i am supposed to replace the chin strap.
ok one question about the camo netting: u noe the string that is supposed to go through the netting to hold it down; the string goes around the head band thing inside the helmet? at the beginning, where should i tie the string to? after all the weaving through the netting, where should i end the string? -
That string should alternate in and out the inner band. It should not touch your head, ie. outside the outer padding.
The camp netting need to be trimmed. When it is tight on the helmet (it should be), the exposed nettings should be cut away.
In the beginning, you can tie the string anywhere. Like at the back or side, where you find the ring which the side strap supposed to go through. The string should be long enough so that you have leftover length and you can end it at a convenient place. -
hm... the weaving is not a prob.. its where to start, how to start, where to end, and how to end with the string...Originally posted by Icemoon:That string should alternate in and out the inner band. It should not touch your head, ie. outside the outer padding.

and i suppose if i wanna change my chin strap, then i should do that BEFORE changing the helmet netting? -
Start and end just tie a knot to something lor.
You can change chin strap independently of netting. -

And those stupid clips get in the way of your head during L/F. Have to un-click the right hand clip (Firing frm right hand of course) and shove the "female" connector portion into my helmet when firing. After firing, attempt to run.... guess what happens? One hand over head to prevent helmet from falling off and other hand holding onto rifle.... goondu soldier exemplified.

for the netting, it'll be easier to use a big black rubber band to secure it first..
put net over helmet, tie rubber band around it.. then start weaving..
can leave the rubber band after weaving..

u can unclip the metal thingys and hook ur grass onto it.
if u fig out wad i'm tokin abt u shld be able to do it
