I'm sorry if this is old new - couldn't find anythin via search eingine so far.

 

I just found a thread over at the rpf and a new guy mentioned that it looks like a pvc female connector (plumbing)

 

So I google some pics - Is this close?

 

I am sure these come in metal aswell.

 

Have a look:

I don't think it would be EIB, but my guess - made w/o seeing it in a helmet - is that it would probably be OK for 501st. Heck, the aerators that come with the AP kit are less accurate and they are 501st acceptable.

These look almost identical to the pvc piping connetors we have down here, the smallest one is 1/4 of a inch internal diamater, the how thing is huge close to a inch all around......

I was under the impression its a microphone tip from a vintage PA, or small mic handset.

 

Hovi Mix is on the side. It will surface...

 

I do not think though there plumbing parts. Close, and work in a pinch for a few bucks though!

Keith's Hovi Mix mic tips are superb. ;)

 

I always recommend them to prospective TE2 bucket owners. :D
