Disguise?
So just from the looks of it, it seems like NCR Ranger combat armor without the disguise effect. Am I correct? Btron4ever 21:19, May 17, 2011 (UTC)
That's really exactly what it is. It has a little different camo, but that's it.--With care and happiness, Supermutantslayer450' YOU. LOSE. 22:28, May 17, 2011 (UTC)

The Picture
There should be a picture of this armor, not the NCR Ranger combat armor. Almighty Higgey 23:38, May 17, 2011 (UTC)
Managed to find a picture, somewhere. Uploading a better one now.--FAR-02C 04:30, May 18, 2011 (UTC)
Plausibility
What are the chances that the NCR armour combination developed independently from this armour and managed to somehow turn out the same (excluding paintjob) despite a difference of a century. They could have come up with something unique. --

- Who says it was developed independently? The Desert Rangers were incorporated into NCR Rangers, so they were likely the origin of the design (especially given that it's consistent with Tycho's description in FO1). Ausir(talk) 11:49, May 18, 2011 (UTC)
- The most likly occurence was the pre-war government developed the armor as either a replacement for the Combat Armor Mark 2 (due to him USMC being deployed in both China and Canada), or developed as a US Ranger / law enforcement armor.--Ant2242 17:20, May 18, 2011 (UTC)
- I had written this before the R.B. Vickers Desert Ranger information was added (or I overlooked it), I thought it was independently put together by this Survivalist fellow so yes you're probably right. --

Shining Armor?
Does the In Shining Armor perk from the Dead Money DLC work with this armor the way it does with the NCR Ranger combat armor?
Most likely. Almighty Higgey 14:45, May 19, 2011 (UTC)
NCR Clothe Change
"After the merge between the Desert Ranger and the NCR Rangers in 2271, this armor model was abandoned and a new less protective armor was created for the New California Republic's veteran Rangers based on this, the NCR Ranger combat armor." I don't think that this is written in a good way. It kind of means that the NCR said "yeh, here you have some NEW weaker protection now, kthxby." But the normal NCR ranger trooper armor already existed before-- It's the NCRs standard ranger armor. It is more logical that the riot armor was just exchanged with the normal ranger trooper armor, because this equipment is very rar and expensive.--Mr.Lexx(talk) 11:46, May 21, 2011 (UTC)
