Reviews & Ratings for Armasight by Otte Gear Night Vision Helmet Bag — 4 reviews — Page 1

I am a professional gun writer and I first used one of these bags almost two years ago when I reviewed an NVG/Bump helmet combo package from Armasight. This is the same bag sold by Otte (all of their stuff is top of the line in design and quality), but at about half their normal price. I have multiple sets of NVGs and helmets and I have always kept the NVGs in a Pelican case with batteries, mounts, etc. and the helmets in their own bags. I was so impressed with how these put everything you need into one bag that I bought a few of them.

They have a padded case that velcroes to the top of the bag to hold the NVG and the mount. There are battery loops and places to store everything. There are straps to hold the helmet so it doesn't fall out when you unzip the bag. It's not as sturdy as a Pelican, but it's not as bulky either.

I would not feel comfortable checking this at the airport, but it does have sufficient padding to use as a carry-on when traveling with night vision. I've tried making other helmet bags hold NVGs too, and I finally gave up and went back to this one because it works.

Absolutely amazing quality fits my nods and helmet perfectly.

Excellent bag. Fits a mich helmet with a load of accessories. Plenty of room for nods, batteries, mounts. Padding is adequate at least.

This is the identical OTTE Gear helmet bag I've used for years, but in Armasight's Gunship Grey color. From experience, it holds a fully rigged helmet with hearing protection stationarily enough that during handling, my old Streamlight TLRs on both sides of my Team Wendy helmet are not activated. The newer Streamlight TLRs have rotating bezels that lock the operation to off, a feature that I greatly appreciate. But neither my old TLR1 or my TLR-IR that I keep on my helmet have that feature. What I'm getting at is that the helmet is secure enough when fastened by the internal straps that I don't have to worry about activating a light inside my bag due to normal handling or bumps. I keep the helmet at a slight angle and have never had an issue with accidental light activation. That TLR1 can get hot.
I keep my BNVDs in the removable pouch in back, and there's plenty of room. I disconnect my mount and sequester it in one side of the pouch with one of its two adjustable panels. My goggles are safe from anything hard or sharp. Pouches in the side of the bag hold extra batteries and lens tissue and Altoids.
Well made for a lifetime of use, dual full-length zippers, Gunship Grey color. Combine it with Armasight Gunship Grey helmet, mount, and goggle for a functionally superb kit in a classy and sick grey color.
Excellent bag, black color inside, not the shocking fluorescent orange inside like my OTTE gear bag.
