Thank you very much. All of you. You cannot imagine how this fills me with pride.

Just found some time last 2 weeks to do almost all of the recommended changes. Here they are: Crotch / Buttplate: Added a second snap at the buttplate and changed the rivet at crotch piece with a split rivet provided by Echo Thigh ammo pack: Changed the former rivets to cap rivets provided by Echo and painted them white Mic Tips: replaced mic tips incl. speakers with the original ones I tried to change the position of the kneeplate, too, but it almost broke by attempt because of the used loctite. So I decided to leave it as it is. Like Dennis already posted, there were Movie-Troopers with the same kind of knee-placement. I hope you agree with the changes I made and wait for your feedback. Regards, Tom

Thank you all. I'll keep you informed and will change the things step by step.

Hi Phil, I will try to make the changes, but it'll take some time since I have not much free time at the moment. Regards, Tom

Hi Phil, thank you for your quick answer. Here's a picture of the arm strapping. I hope this one is ok. The other things you mentioned (second snap and stud at the crotch piece) should be no problem. Except of the kneeplate. It was positioned as shown to be straight at center view. The whole knee including the kneeplate was glued with loctite454. So it's almost impossible to change that in an easy way without damaging it. AFAIK there were movie-armors of the same kind concerning the kneeplate. However, if this is a problem please tell me. I fully understand if it doesn't meet the requirements for centurion and therefore I won't get it. Regards, Tom
