White phosphor is totally worth the up charge in price compared to green.

Also, get some counter weight on that helmet (if you haven’t already). Wearing nods for any decent length of time without counter weight sucks ass. Your forehead will hate you pretty quick.

Agreed on the WP.

I've got a weighted bag I strap to the back if i'm going to be wearing them a while. Even without it though, this bump helm fits so well and distributes the weight as to where it's only really necessary if I wear it for hours.

It's like Barbie, you gotta get all the accessories, or you just end up jealous of another little girl's toy.

Well, it is dark half of the day.

It's just fun to go out at 0 dark AF 30 and put suppressed rounds down range. Don't knock it till you try it.

Oh, I've tried it, several times and probably with more powerful weapons that you have ever fired. I didn't find it all that much fun -
