Idea for a Black & Green Rifle Forum Group Buy?

[Skullboy]

What Cancer & Peltor?

Anyways a group buy on some electronic ear muffs would be great. Perhaps someone can set it up with JR then put it on the back burner till the Eagle buy is done?

I have PM'd JR in regards to a buy and will see about the neccessary Admin clearance.

SKBY.

No MSA then?

No MSA then?

Are they the best?

 

[WRENCHGOD]

There is always something better. But they will due for now.

I was talking to Farmboy and he is thinking he can bring Sordins in for around the $300 price range. I know some would prefer Sordins. The people organizing this group buy might want to think about talking to Farmboy too. Both Peltor Swattec and MSA Sordin Supreme Pro are comparable products. Though some think that Sordin has a slight edge over Peltor. I will be buying a Sordin.

I don't want to derail this, but if you wear electronic muffs and earplugs underneath, wouldn't it be just as easy to wear great muffs and electronic earplugs underneath? That way you could wear just the earplugs when hunting or such, and you'd have super-hearing.

If anyone sets up a group buy for electronic ear plugs I'm in in a heartbeat.

Wow! No price posted though.... I don't even know if I wanna know!

 

[imsharkbait]

Depends on the cost and who we use to get them. But I might be down for 2 sets.

 

[koalorka]

I'd be down for a set of Comtacs, that friggen CQB is way too loud.

 

[KevinB]

We replaced our Sordins with the Peltor ComtacII's -- I think they are a comparible product -- however depending what uses you have one may out edge the other.

 

[BC_Guy]

I'm a little curious why everyone wants comtacs? I can understand if you want to plug in a radio, but I'm guessing the majority of us will never do that. What do they have over something like a pair of 6s or 7s, other than double the price? Is there some other feature that sets them apart?

 

[KevinB]

Well you can plug in Sordins to an Ipod.
I'm sure you can get a 2:1 adapter to do it with Comtacs too


BC Guy has a good point. Unless guys want to the lower helmet cut profile -- once again good for the CF guys -- but not much good to the others.

 

[ontariodoubletapper]

I'm with KevinB, I'd be in for a set but don't need anything more than a simple slim set of electronics.
How about these? They'd double up as eye and ear protection. If you wanted you could use your head to open doors on those nasty IPSC stages.

100% Agree

What about a LWRC piston upper group buy? If there is interest and approval I'll make some calls?

This is a great idea. I' would go for this!

I tried this last summer, needed 10 guys got 6. If you are going Peltor, go with the TacPro or the Tacsport. They are the improved versions of the Comtac, at least according to Peltor. I have both, plus the wire to connect to my MP3 player, works ok, but a little static at times.

Please put me on the contact list if this group buy becomes a formalized reality.

 

[the_ghost226]

Sign me up. Can we get a CGN logo on them?

 

[Sosa]

I'd be in for a set. My old dillons are getting ratty and the plastic just cracked.

 

[Sinasta]

Bump...

 

[robstar]
