FIVE Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Lookin' good man! I will wait — as I always do — for others to chime in first of course. But the only things I have questions about are the hovi mics and cheese grater hand plates. As it's written now the trapezoid hand-plates are required for deployment. (I'm sure you have some around even if you must.) And the hovi mic tips must be "correct." I simply can't tell if yours are or not. Don't do anything yet though! Let us see what others say and go from there. Anyone else have thoughts? (oh yeah, nice gun!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have a dirtied up set of trapezoid hand plates I can switch out with the cheese graters. Here they are. Let me know if you need me to wear them with the rest of the armor.

DirtyBoy Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Perfect...I think once the close ups are done you should be good to go. Great job trooper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordonator Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Looking forward to the updates. At the mean time I will clear the locker for you at the station so you can use it once you are deployed. Dusted it with lots of sand hope you like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenthork Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 cool armor and pack bro. great work. i think that buttons in black on the radio will be more beautiful but it seems that not obligatory. something out to me : is it normal that your two parts forearm is not connected by an outer band (is this will be ok for the deployment?)

TD6187 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 good back pack and armor !!! good job!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIVE Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 something out to me : is it normal that your two parts forearm is not connected by an outer band (is this will be ok for the deployment?)No, usually there's a finishing strip, but as long as the forearms are closed it's okay.

DirtyBoy Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 No, usually there's a finishing strip, but as long as the forearms are closed it's okay. It would give a more finished look to the forearms but not listed as a current requirement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had just done a mod the night before to give my arms a little breathing room. I didn't fasten them tight enough for the photoshoot since I wasn't used to them. Here is another pic I just took. Here is the pic of my ammo cover and disc on my DLT-19 as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
