Nice Bapty mate, Sheartech, isn´t it?
I´ve seen the wire on your DLT´s T-tracks. To have it approved too, you would need to show a pic of the little disc greeblie on the left side of the grip.

Kevin, this was your first and final review (except you decide to go for SWAT).
Your gear looks great and you are a worthy addition to the ranks of the MEPD´s finest, be proud of yourself!
You have successfully followed the guidelines in regards to the MEPD CRL and have met all requirements.
Please send the pic you want to use to Luis (Sandman Tigui) and we'll get you squared away.
We will have your updated information uploaded into the MEPD system very soon.
Congratulations on becoming a Deployed Officer of the MEPD!
Cheers mate!

WhoopsHey Kevin, that is all looking very good! Nice work and the gap isn't very noticeable... especially because you've put your new pouch in front of it
but that will be fine.
Your Bapty E-11 will be fine for deployment but on the DLT I am missing the wire around the T-tracks, however, you've got two blasters so I'll count your E-11 for the next review, which will be coming very soon but right now, I'm in the midst of improving my own armor.
Cheers mate.
i promise the gap isnt as bad.
DLT does have wire but probably isnt very clear in the pics. I have another troop tomorrow if you need anything else picture wise.
Thanks for all your help and advice!
Regards
Kev

As i understand it this directive only applies to clothing merch that comes from a USA based vendor as the preferred supplier disney have named does not ship internationally. All we have to do is get someone not based in the USA to run this

Just stumbled across this fantastic program and thought Id start my own. Some troops i'm struggling to find pictures for so will be asking my fellow squadmates for some so this won't be in chronological order.

Brief update. Leather hip pouch arrived yesterday. Had a troop today and found the hip gap between the front and back sections to be 5mm on the left hand side and 15mm on the right. It appears the xmas gut that santa left me is causing the issue so im going to start training again to get rid of the extra inches and close that gap down

Ah my bad, went back to CRL updates to have a re read of them and thought they both had to be leatherYour canvas shoulder pouch is good and screenaccurate.

No problem, i guessed as much. Is that for both pouches as some PO clearances have people with that style of shoulder pouch. I haven't paid for these so its not a lossHi Kevin, I am sorry to disappoint you but your new pouch is simply a leather version of the canvas pouch which won't work. As I am not at my computer right now, I can't post a picture but you can find the approvable pouches on the last page of this thread:

Hi bud, these two pouches have come my way today. I know they arent weathered yet but is the style ok particularly on the hip one?Hey Kevin, there is no need to apologize!
I like your attitude to get things done, keep up the good work mate.
Let's get you deployed!

Thanks for getting back to me, no worries about the decal. It completely slipped my mind. I've just had a new Shoulder bell delivered from RS prop masters for this very reason and for non UKG troops. Ill redo the armour pics taking care of the gap at the same time. Apologies for missing about the canvas pouch, ive removed that and added a pic without it. Ill order a leather one this week
