I even added some spiffy tacticool paint. You will need to shorten the bolt almost a 1/4 of an inch so that it does not protrude past the speed nut. Get your self the Wilcox NVG Lanyard Assembly for the Ops Core Shroud (PN 41400G06-T (T for Tan in this case)) and a 1/4 X 20 bolt 1/2inch long. The new speed nut protrudes just at 1 mm and And AND I am adding a pad on top of it. I am editing this to show a newer mounting method as the first version of this used a nut that protruded too far into the helmet. Now I have to put in the disclaimer here that if you try this you do so at your OWN RISK ! ! ! In looking at the situation I came up with the following solution. Now Wilcox makes a mount that slips over the top of the Ops Core shroud but with the Base Jump and it's molded in Shroud nothing exists in the VERY EXTENSIVE Wilcox product line. Now that being said, I have always wished for the retractable lanyard on the Base Jump just like the Fast Ballistic and Bump helmets.Ī long neck cord like most people use (hopefully your using SOMETHING), works but it has to be tucked into the bungies so it won't drape across your face and get in the line of sight. If I EVER would have a need to do anything serious I would break out my FAST ballistic helmet. MOSTLY hunting, at night and some just good old walkin around sometimes known as hiking. Now let me say here that I use the Base Jump as a quick easy way to mount NVDs for most of the Night Time pursuits I engage in. Quick and easy to use in addition to being very dependable. The Base Jump Helmet from Ops Core is one of the best thought out products on the market today.
