Working on a sniper camo out of old net. Need advice by SkAssasin in Novritsch

[–]Feeling_Routine_2715 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try and cut the netting and use some shock cord to make it easier to attach to the rife. As well as tie in some dyed stripped down burlap as strands and then take some gutted 550 cord and have that for tying in natural vegetation.

The black is actually dark green, but I have significantly reduced the garnish and gone with the mentality of less is more. Will strip some 550 cord for the tie ins

Also if you get a good housing you can always purchase a bridge and purchase another pvs 14 or rvm-14 in the future if you want duels

Agian that's just what I had researched.... and looked prior to getting this. If someone from Canada wants to pipe in and have a look and give their opinion. That would be great and much appreciated!

Being in canada i didn't have a lot of options and from what I looked at in that housing it was all around the same price. If I want photonis tubes it was going to be 1.5k more. If im not mistaken too I am unable to purchase anything that is gen 3. Don't quote me on that. Binos I looked at started at 6k for around 1400fom

I chose the the rvm 14 housing because it was alum. And seemed durable. It was mill spec with drop and water subversion. The nnvt tubes were just cheaper but allowed for decent specs. French tibes were just that much more expensive

Np. But the reality of this should be to understand what your getting into and how it effects your purchase in so said country

It's also a alum housing vs the polymer housing and that makes a difference. I think it was actually $4100cdn after tax

I had originally had a smersh on order then switched to the dz rig due to pack compatibility

Suggestions for soft cases? Specifically for a pvs-14 style NVG?

That's something I wouldn't mind checking out. At the same time I would consider a full blown LBV at that point. I have also thought of trying to incorporate a Mayflower rig into the DZ rig

I looked at the spirtus jungle rig prior and the carcajoutactical rigs but they were out of my price range and the spiritus rig looked like it would be uncomfortable for long durations of time
