bomagizzle Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 I managed to pick up some second hand Bungle armor. It looks like the armor is there short of the bucket and shin greeblies. I don't know what I'm missing in regards to the rubber looking parts. Can anyone take a look and see what I'm missing? I still haven't figured out the small rectangular piece.
Grumpy Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 You'll need the elbow straps also. Contact bikerchick. http://forum.bikerscout.net/index.php?showuser=20517 She makes the PGHFett style armor now. But, the shin greebiles would be the same. She could provide you with those missing pieces. The small rectangular piece in the bottom of your picture is a left inner bicep greeblie. If you have any other questions, just ask. Cheers!
bomagizzle Posted December 11, 2014 Author Posted December 11, 2014 I think I may just end up replacing all of those pieces. The person I got this from said it has been in storage for some time and I would rather have reliable versions of them and not break or snap during a troop. I don't trust a few of the pieces with the discoloration they have unless that's normal. What is the smaller pinkish piece and the rectangular white piece in the bottom picture? I can get closer shots if needed.
bomagizzle Posted February 17, 2015 Author Posted February 17, 2015 Managed to find some bdu's that weren't windproof (at least I hope not). My dog managed to photobomb at the last minute. Got my bucket before christmas but haven't been able to get to it. Also got a Grumpy cumberbund and a set of leather gloves to mod. Only thing that troubles me are the boots. I may have found one but I would like a second opinion or two. http://www.rothco.co...tan-jungle-boot
Grumpy Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 I think those boots would work. You might not get too high with modifications on that large inside arch, but the smaller little arches on the sole are easy to modify with a dremmel. Those are like military boots, which I have used.
miqt Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 If you haven't bought any yet- the bicep greebs are super easy to fabricate from sheet and strip styrene. Good luck with the build.
bselphfsu282 Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 Oh yeah, those boots will be fine. Just take a dremel to the arch to give a bit of a rounded edge and you won't have an issue getting passed on that part. I ended up getting a pretty cheap pair of construction boots and they even worked. Only problem with mine is that standing for a long time on a convention floor will cause some back pain.
