Belt and drop boxes


Recommended Posts

In the CRL it states "Rear parachute buckles are threaded with the white webbing straps in front of the buckle."

In watching the IG scene a couple times today I found both scouts have only one buckle threaded that way.  The lead scout with the complete tank topper and the strip on his tank has his left bucked threaded white on top and the other scout's is on the left side.  The opposite side is threaded same as the front.   Should the CRL read "In the rear, one parachute buckle is threaded with the white webbing strap in front of the buckle; the other is threaded normally."  

I'm no armorer, just a dude.  I was looking at the show to try to do mine correct but correct by the show is not 100% correct by the CRL

Maybe I'm wrong, but both of the ones where the buckle is covering the webbing look like they've been twisted over.  You can tell by the webbing between the buckle and the TD.  Looks pinched.  

But honestly, I really don't care.  If this is what y'all want, fine.   But then there's this:

ahh good catch.  It seems consistency was not in the cards for these poor scouts.  I'll rest my case and follow the CRL as written.  

Not at all.  And part of writing a CRL is trying to aggregate everything we see on screen and make something easy for costumers and GMLs to follow.  We look for general rules and intentions and for the most part leave out one-offs and mistakes.
