Hard Plate Carrier and Cavalry Headset
« on: March 05, 2007, 08:36:45 PM »
This looks cool, but I haven't heard much good things about PROUD and their products. Is this based off a real vest or is it just made up?



I'm looking for something similar to the CIRAS, a plate carrier, in Coyote Brown. I might just end up getting another CIRAS. I haven't seen any made by Phantom in CB...Do they exist or do I just need to buy one from Eagle?  :(


 
Does anyone know if these are any good? Can't find any reviews. Cavalry TOTO II it's called. $75 doesnt seem too bad if its decent.

It appears the connector can't be used with an ICOM F4S. Is there any way one could alter the connector with one that would work? I don't feel like dropping a couple hundred on a silly head set.

This appears to be what it is based off of....

I saw those headsets on RedWolf not too long ago.  I posted here, but I didn't get a whole lot of info back.  The thread is here in case you're interested.

Review:
http://arniesairsoft.co.uk/news2/1733

It looks like the motorolla pin should be compatable with an ICOM, or would it interfere due to the positioning of the volume knob and antenna?

Motorola is compatable with
CP100/150/200
CT150/250/450/450LS
GP68/88/280/280XL/300/308/2000
GTI
GTX
LTS2000
P040/080/100/110/200/1225/1225LS
PR400/O3150
SP10/21/50
XTN446/500/600

Dude, if you are going to spend 75 bucks+shipping to order the headset from HK, you may as well spend the ~100 shipped to get a real Bowman off of eBay. Although I cannot speak for the Redwolf knockoff, I can say that the Bowman and Icom combo is the best communications set up I have ever had.

What kind of altering and tinkering does a real Bowman need to be compatable with an ICOM?
