Thank you for all for your comments, suggestions and encouragement! It is greatly appreciated. I will be making the appropriate adjustments and plan to submit for Centurion in the near future.
Steve - Thank you for your review of my armor and for approving my EIB status! Yea! I'd like to address some of your comments/questions: I did not use the "Mike" tips that came in my MTK kit....I used the mic tips from Trooperbay that, at the time, were supposedly more accurate. In person, they actually look off-white...the color is really vivid in the picture making them look yellow. I will look into fixing my tube strips (thanks for the reference shot). I will be making the alterations necessary to pass for Centurion, so I'll remove one of the ear bars on each side of my helmet and my rubber gloves and hand guards are on order. My drop boxes already have backs. I have no return edge on the inside of my forearms at the wrist, but I do have a slight return edge on the outside of my forearms at the wrist. The CRL reads, "No return edge on the inside of the front of the forearm is allowed", but is it more accurate to have ALL the return edge trimmed out of the wrist opening?
Again, thank you everyone!
