This video compares ballistic helmets versus impact (bump) helmets for tactical use. The speaker, demonstrating with an Armasite PBS 14 NVG system, highlights that while bump helmets are lighter and more comfortable for prolonged use, ballistic helmets offer significantly superior protection in combat scenarios, despite their increased weight and discomfort. The choice depends on the operational environment and threat level.

This video compares bump helmets and ballistic helmets for tactical use, particularly with night vision (NVG) systems. The speaker, from Civilian Tactical, highlights that ballistic helmets offer superior protection in combat situations despite being heavier. Bump helmets are recommended for lighter, non-combat applications like around the homestead due to their significantly lower weight, making them more comfortable for extended wear with NVGs.

This video discusses the civilian ownership of ballistic and non-ballistic helmets, emphasizing that in America, ownership is a right. The speaker highlights the importance of a good suspension system for comfort and proper weight distribution, especially when mounting accessories like night vision. While ballistic helmets offer superior protection, non-ballistic bump helmets are presented as a more budget-friendly option for general head protection.

This comprehensive guide breaks down the process of building a tactical helmet system, covering budget considerations, helmet types (bump vs. ballistic), and the crucial integration of accessories like EarPro, night vision mounts, strobes, and lights. It details compatibility between different rail systems (Opscore ARC, Team Wendy, M-LOK) and various accessory brands, emphasizing the importance of proper fit, retention, and weight distribution for optimal performance and comfort.

This video argues that civilians serious about preparedness should invest in ballistic helmets, not just bump helmets used for aesthetics. While bump helmets are often seen as a fad for 'goons' prioritizing looks over protection, ballistic helmets offer crucial life-saving capabilities. The speaker emphasizes that even helmets not rated for rifle cartridges can stop handgun rounds and ricochets, citing numerous reports of SWAT officers surviving buckshot and handgun fire. The recommendation is to buy the best ballistic helmet one can afford, prioritizing reliability and actual ballistic protection over brand or style.

This video discusses the necessity and benefits of ballistic helmets for civilian use, particularly when operating with night vision devices. The speaker, an experienced helmet user, advocates for ballistic helmets over bump helmets due to the minimal comfort difference and superior protection. Key considerations include mounting night vision, integrating hearing protection, and the ballistic rating against common handgun rounds.

This video compares budget and expensive helmet setups, advising that while high-end gear is crucial for professional use (SWAT, law enforcement, military) where lives depend on it, civilians can opt for more affordable options without compromising safety or financial stability. The instructor emphasizes prioritizing essential training and primary weapons before investing in accessories like helmets and night vision, especially if not used professionally.
