Chopper Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Nice Chris. A few pointers -- you might want to bring your knees up a bit, so they're not dropping into your boot tops. Velcro helps to keep them in place. Also, you could bring your shoulder bells in maybe 3/4", so that they're closer to the bridges. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiker Scout Posted October 9, 2021 Author Share Posted October 9, 2021 Alright. Almost ready for submission photos. Gotta add some velcro to keep bund, and all limb armors in place for troops. See anything else that may need addressing prior to submitting? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopper Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 For basic clearance, the only thing to note is that you should make sure that your bund and pouch tabs are under your chest armor. bring your bicep armor up a bit as well. And if that's all part of what you're working on with the velcro, then I'd say you should be good to go, once cleared up. Great job Chris! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NegativeEleven Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Don't know how your GML will be, but I had to keep adjusting length of vest sleeves to get approved. I see yours are showing slightly different lengths under the shoulder bell. Should be about half an inch, and try to make both sides the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiker Scout Posted October 10, 2021 Author Share Posted October 10, 2021 Velcroed the bicep and knee armor in place. Pulled up the shoulder bells just slightly. I might have to shorten up the vest sleeves. We'll see. And add padding to inside of helmet. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
