Blaster is looking good. Just ordered a doopy's a couple days ago. I am not to far away from you. I live in Dahlonega and my wife works in Gainesville. I get over that way with my side business on weekends. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Tim, What a fantastic E-11 build thread! You did a fantastic job and your blaster looks awesome. I staterd out yesterday just scoping out threads because it is time for me to get my blaster and I ended up enthralled with your build. I just now finished reading it and am looking forward to building mine. Thanks for taking the time to post all the photos and how you did things. Troopers helping Troopers.

Great job. Looks good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I don't know why that never crossed my mind. Makes perfect sense. Thanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

She's 12 so she has a bit more growing to do. We are worried if we build one for her she may grow out of it. She loves the idea of building it and is willing to help do it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Diana, What a fantastic build thread. I have read through the entire thing over the last couple days. It has been a positive, informative and entertaining time. I am still in the research phase of finding out what armor I want to get but will be sure to reference your build when I do. My daughter want a set as well and your build will come in especially handy when we do hers. Thanks for the great read. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looking good.

Awesome.

Looking good.

That looks awesome. Good job. I would consider one after I build my TK.

That might work well for her. I will keep an eye on your build and see how it goes.

I'd like to see how this works out. I am consider an AM kit.

Looks awesome. Great job.

I will check it out. Thanks.

Nice set up.

How tall is she? I am looking for armor for my daughter who is 5'2". This might be a viable option for her.

Maybe a mod of the new Gis femtrooper armor might work. Possibly make it a bit bigger so she can grow some more and the armor still be wearable.

Ok, so I have my answer. Thanks for the input. Any thoughts on the AM 2.0 vs AP? Both are in my price range. I can't bring myself to spend much more even though I could. I know that there have been issues with AM on higher rank approvals with the chest and back pieces. They changed the chest but not the back yet. And is the redesigned helmet better?

I can. I already have pricing from a few of the vetted sources. I guess the "I could have a full set right now" bug got a hold of me.

I have a lead on an existing AM/FX set but am worried about refitting it to me. What may be involve in a refit? The kit is fitted for a smaller person (5'5") and I am 6'. The other option is to just buy a new kit possibly AP or one of the new AM kits. I am waiting on pricing back on others. This is my first set so I am unsure of what may be involved, Any help and/or advise is appreciated. Thanks.

My daughter is interested in a set of armor. She is 5'2" right now and I am sure not done growing yet. Is it possible that one of the adult sets would work for her now and as she grows with out a whole lot of modifications? Mom is 5'9" and I am 6'. So it is possible for her to put on another 7"-8".
