  1. A question came up in my garrison and I didn't have a good answer so here goes... Is having a separate abdomen / cod piece acceptable for EIB and Centurion now? I was looking at the CRL and noticed it did not specify but I seem to remember it saying they needed to be one piece. Then again, I could just be old and losing my mind.
  2. I use bubble-wrap and tuck it inside the bag I use for my armor, haven't had any breakages so far.
  3. I haven't had E6000 do anything adverse to my kit. I've used it on the pvc parts and strapping without anything terrible happening. CA glue on the other hand has wrecked my fingertips and caused me to use many expletives during assembly.
  4. I'm happy to report that no one in the New England Garrison was affected by this insanity. Our thoughts go out to the victims and their families.
  5. Thanks all. Coming from this group, the comments mean a lot to me. I think I'm the first Centurion in the New England Garrison, at least that's what I'm being told. Hopefully that inspires some of my peeps to up the ante on their TK's.
  6. I purchased an under suit from --------------and have been very pleased. It has a zipper down the front but is concealed under the armour and neck seal.
  7. Thanks so much! I couldn't be happier to join the Centurion ranks, this is the goal I was working toward from the beginning of my time here. Taking time to build it right definitely paid off.
  8. These changes are for approvals going forward from this point correct?
  9. Thanks for the info, passing this along.
  10. Curved scissors, sand paper, and an Exacto is what I used for trimming, the Dremel came out for smoothing some edges but not many. .
  11. You may want to shoot them an email with your size. Someone in my garrison just got a pair from them out their back stock.

  13. In his ab detail photo, you can see that the center button is square it looks like the detail is just not as clear in subsequent photos.
  14. I used the doopydoo's full resin kit and the final product came out well. The only thing you'd have to fabricate would be a scope and counter bracket which wasn't too terrifying. http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/4697-howto-make-a-metal-scope-rail-counter-bracket/page__hl__%20scope%20%20bracket My armour is the PVC kit from RS Props and I couldn't be happier with it. I went with PVC primarily for its shiny quality, not to mention it's very flexible and I found it easy to work with for assembly. As for having them assemble it, do you live near their shop? I think they've had folks stop in to get measured in the past, can't get much more accurate than that.
  15. I have the 12w version mounted to the inside of my chest plate, speaker facing outwards. I haven't had any problems with feedback and it sounds loud and clear. It's a little awkward trying to reach in there and adjust the volume but it's doable.
  16. I went with PVC just because I loved that high gloss quality about it. It's funny, first event I wore it to everyone kept commenting on how shiny it was.
  17. Would the split rivets be an issue with Centurion? Not sure if I just had a brain-fart when I was assembling or what, but looking back at RS's originals I can see they're caps...doh! I'm digging through my left-over kit parts to see if I still have more.
