Thigh Box Clips - Lancer Questions...

[batninja]

On a whim, I went back to the BluRay Scout reference pics to verify some points. I understand the pictures are reversed (holster is on the left instead of the right boot, TD greeblie is mirrored), but I started scrutinizing the clips on the webbing.

 

The front clips are shown with the ribbed end of the clip on the bottom. The one of the rear shows the ribbed end on the top. The MoM pics show the rear clips with the ribbed area on the top, hence the confusion.

 

 

My question is: Does it really matter, for Lancer purposes, if it set up the same, or can I satisfy my OCD by correcting one side or the other?

 

I'm also aware that the webbing goes through the backside of the clips, and that, because of this, the clips are not 'functional':

 

 

My second question is: If I decide the make the clips functional by trimming the webbing and attaching it to the clips, does this disqualify me from Lancer status? Again, my sanity relies on this discrepancy.

 

I apologize for lack of pics. I searched for screen shots of the BluRay gallery, but couldn't find anything on BSN.

No and No...

 

Let your OCD run riot front to back, and functional clips will be fine.

 

Just make what ever you do, tidy.

Is this tidy enough?

[Chef]

Looks alright to me.

Thanks!

 

That's the 1.5" (38mm) off-white cotton webbing that came with my MonCal kit. I've bleached it to the point where it's a single shade from being plain ol' WHITE.

 

I've sent an email to Cal to see if the place he gets his makes a white version of the webbing. I can't seem to find a source online.
