Lawless Scout

I recently took a photo with my buddies RS and my MonCal kit - can't think of anything else now and really need a new helmet.

I really live by magnets. joanns has Purse Clasp magnets that are easy to install with just prongs and 2 small cuts. Then glue the other to the bicep armor. I hate when mine move. the nice thing with the clasps is the magnets "click in" with a little tab - they will never move. I did the same with my knees too.

It's just a kit right so no padding on inside? What did you do for that?

So much help here on the forums. Post lots of photos and questions. We're here to help.

Well hell I think it's about time for a huge SoCal Lancer/ Pathfinder photo! Bill is awesome and will be a great addition to the Scout ranks going forward.

you can just drill a hole a little off center - and use a small washer - should be fine.

Keep it coming! More scouts! More fun!

Keep posting and asking questions. For a speaker system most use any small cheap speaker off Amazon - mine was $30 plus an upgraded mic (important!). These can either be held in one of the pouches but I prefer to put it either behind the chest piece (seems more like it's coming from me) or in my pocket of the flight suit. It weighs the pouch down to much for me. Where are you getting your boots from? Bund and pouches are easy - just remember right over left for the bund. Nice helmet too.

It always starts here! Go ahead and cut off those clips and get ready for the fun!

Very cool idea. Thanks for sharing - Pistol is right size most likely as yup the SC is way too big. Had the same issue with my first SC kit.

Same ones I have. Clean cuts too!

Welcome to the Pathfinders. Fixing up those rivet holes isn't too hard at all. Drill out all the current rivets and use either e6000 or even any plastic weld from a hardware store like ACE or Home Depot to secure the 3 pieces together as well as filling in the holes! It will be really solid and sandable. Once the holes are filled and the belt made to be one piece a little sanding, wet sanding, primer and paint - BAM! One piece belt. You can do it man.

I use a clip instead of Velcro in the back. One piece is attached to vest. And the clip on the elastic strap of the cod piece that is held on front of flight suit with Velcro under the belt. Nice and clean and easy to remove.

yeah the Duck Cloth at JoAnns is probably the best option I'd imagine - that's what I use.
