  1. Doing my MRCE rebuild and I got a bit overeager with my drill and heat gun. I was looking to see if anyone had ears for a helmet lying around. Really I only need the antenna/rank portion (circular part on the MRCE), so it doesn't matter if other parts are damaged or bad pulls, etc.

  2. after that you get into the realm of TK's wearing white Chuck Taylors.

     

    Ooooh.. comfy! :)

     

    CABoots are a good easy choice. I got mine fairly quick, but the service left a little to be desired. The smell isn't too bad, it just smells like rubber and glue. If you're like me and you keep them in your armor bin, everyone in the house will know whenever you are getting into that bin. :lol:

  3. Did you buy it new and how much did it cost? I looked at one today at play it again sports. They don't seem thick enough or enough in the helmet for good coverage in the MRCE.

     

    I bought a helmet at Dick's Sporting Goods. I think it was a Wilson brand for $20, the helmet liner was adjustable in the original batting helmet. It had it's own framework inside, pulled it all out and installed very easily with some ind. velcro.

  4. And talk abt small! yeesh - soome1 pls tell me they have the same problem, and not that I have a huge melon, giant-pumpkin sized head??

     

    I'm in the same boat as you. My FX is actually a good fit, my MRCE is tight and I can't wear my glasses in it. I have a garrison mate who has the same problem with his bucket (AP, I think), it's actually difficult for him to get the helmet on and off.

     

    So, you're not the only melon headed trooper :lol:

  5. yes. yes. thats sounds like canada post.

     

    I have an item that left canada on 2 Dec 2008. its obviously still in the sky - cos thats it, tracking says its left, no sight of arrival. Worlds longest flight.

     

    Sounds like they strapped it to a swallow, or maybe a pair of swallows. :)
