Newest addition to my "high speed low drag" cowboying kit. MSA Sordin Dual COMM headset with HARRIS PRC PTT's. Purchased brand new for $310 came with the headset, batteries, three PTT's (two standard, 1 coiled), and two MSA 3/4 pads.



coiled wire is used when I'm a vehicle commander.
 


Obviously I had to remove the crown pad and "mimic my pads to resemble the FAST OCC  set up


has very low profile headband to fit inside most helmet


fits very snug in my medium LWH, optimal size is obviously large for a more comfortable fit.

Nice setup. Hot as @#$% in the desert, but nice.

Thanks. Yes actually, ebay seller amountainman is very reasonable, and for you grunt brethren currently down range he does ship to FPO/APO addresses (that's how I was able to get mine). I run Harris AN/PRC-152/117G/119F (mostly 152 since I'm billeted as a FTL) and occasionally a Motorola AN/PRC-153 (rarely). the Harris radios are terrible in my opinion, because if you get a FRO to load it wrong, COMM goes to sh*t, but then again COMM was never a strong suit in the infantry

Thanks, yes it is but unfortunately my unit didnt go back down range to Afghanistan this year, instead we got sent into the Pacific for jungle warfare UTP's.

My girlfriend just got me one of the coolest pieces of survival and evasion tools out there on the market for my birthday. It's called the Operator band, and rightly so; it was designed by a level C SERE graduated ODA Operator working for RE Factor tactical. I'm providing a link to the actual product because it's the best $50 I think my girlfriend has ever spent on me. For those of you who actively go outdoors I highly recommend purchasing this piece of gear. There are videos on the page to give an in depth description of the actual band and what components are (P51 can opener, fishing line, 550 cord, #8 fishing hook, handcuff ket, snare wire, fire starter rod).
