I'm guessing a little update on this might be in order.
Since my kit will, and have been in pretty much ever changing form since it arrived it has taken a really good fit on me. Some upgrades have been made, and some have yet to be made. For example, the shoulder straps were recently replaced with white elastic, and eventually all pop rivets will be replaced with brads or split rivets depending on what I have at the moment. Preparing for Centurion!
Also, I got a pair of cotton/lycra inner gloves from Amplexor at a troop, so the rubber gloves are no longer an issue.
Here's a pic from the latest troop with Nordic Garrison
