Its a SWAT brand IBH. I bought it from WGC for I think $33. Its got an absolute horrid chinstrap though, I'm still trying to find a replacement from MSA or another brand.

What exactly is the problem with it, other than having the buckle on the right side? That would be optimal for me, given that I shoot left handed. I'm inclined to purchase one in three weeks or so.

It doesn't adjust well at all, 90% of the time the actual chin part will be lopsided or some place goofy.

On my old one, The closest it would get to being tightened right, is the left side at it's most loose, the right side at the tightest, and even then, it wasn't right. I'm in the process of taking my old chinstrap from BCT and putting it on, it's just a matter of motivation. Edit. Just put my ACH/MICH chinstrap on, and it fits perfect.

After wearing the ACH for a year in Iraq, I hated it. Granted the design is nice, but I had one of the originals and the suspension BLEW! Maybe if they came up with suspension that didn't come loose so easily or sit awkwardly I would've been happier.

Nope, it just came with the shirt (got it from army surplus store). Never really bothered to take it off.

Other than the 1st Cav patch, it looks really good so far. The Steel Pot helmet with the full mask reminds me of some kinda gas mask trooper. Win.

I have a gas mask in the basement storage room in case of a a WWIII situation (seriously). I can get a picture with it on if you want. Maybe the gas mask could be worn at a game...

Only if you can get replacement lenses that are ANSI rated.
