So my first troop is tomorrow. I realized I can barely walk so I got to adjusting. Trimmed the backs at the top of the calf and bottom of the thigh. In addition, I took about an inch off the top of the thigh sections and rounded off the highest part so it’s not digging in to me. Should help multitudes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The best advice I can give you is to look up your local garrison and see if any members live near you and would be willing to assist. Analysis paralysis is not a good thing. Your time frame is doable, but if you rush it the likelihood of mistakes rises. You really need an armor party. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Trooperbay or a site like that should have one.

Pretty much the same as Neb.

Made it! It's a honor to be here! Proudly serving now with Inferno Squad of Garrison Tyranus (VA).

I wasn’t sure industrial strength Velcro would work on keeping them shut on my fat calves, but my local garrison said to use it. It works like a charm. Believe in industrial strength Velcro!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s looking good. I would contact your local garrison and ask for advice. They may suggest you hold off until approved. Overall, before you start snipping things you can’t glue back, it’s always good to ask for help from the powers that be. I think you’re looking good right now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’d start with removing all of the return edge. The elastic looks right as do the loops. I’d start with the edge, see how it helps and then go from there. Tony can pipe in though... he’s the pro Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Actually, it might help to just take a photo of the bell and post here. Good luck! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Tony is right. I have no return edge on mine whatsoever. Also, on mine at least, the elastic is very taught. It makes the bells close a little bit which on mine ensures they close as Tony states they should. Are you using Han loops? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey there! Good to be back! Definitely missed it and glad to be back into it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
