So I have been looking for a good comms headset for quite some time now and think I have found the perfect set up. I bought a surplus bowman on ebay thinking I would mod it which is not all that hard but then I realized that I don't have the time to tinker with it and am not all that great with the soldering gun so I ordered a pre modified unit from N.E.V. Communications in the UK and have to say it was worth the extra money, this thing works great!  The Bowman is very comfortable, won't move around when you are running, fits under just about all helmets, and you can even wear it under wolf ears or any hearing protection without sacrifice in performance. I highly reccommend the Bowman to anyone looking for some good comms. |

1) how much did it cost?
2) what exactly did you buy modified, the whole unit or some replacement part?

I've been drooling over a bowman for quite some time, they remind me of tasc headsets, but more obtainable. I deeply envy your comms equipment. By the way, where did you find your info for the mod you attempted? I'd be very interested in taking a stab at it myself.
Cluckey.

I like the idea of the DEVGRU but you can't hear much of from that ear, Bowman FTW!

I dont, know, I think the DEVGRU looks better. To each their own Mr. C

You just said it looks better! I agree with you there, I am talking more about function, the downside to the DEVGRU is that it blocks your hearing in that one ear, not so with the bowman. I was VERY tempted to pick up a devgru but I just couldn't do it.

Well, I hate the British, so it will be all the easier for me to pick one up!
