  1. Congratulations Chris( @themaninthesuitcase)!!! I hope that with our help, we can make this a little easier for you. And thanks also to Andrew( @Sly11), who prefers to be with us instead of enjoying his retirement in Hawaii... I would also like to wish Joseph( @justjoseph63) all the best. I hope all is well, brother.
  2. Hi Tim. Thanks for your request. Added to the process line
  3. Yeah, nice work Perhaps, I would remove a little more paint on the center tooth, but only because my OCD wouldn't let me have a line that wasn't straight Keep up the good work, Wil !
  4. I've never used that glue, but I'm sure someone will be able to give you some advice. Maybe soaking it in warm water, or using isopropyl alcohol, or mineral spirits might help. What is very important, is that you don't use products with acetone.
  5. Well, actually, D.O.s don't just follow the CRL. If you look at the reviews, we always say the following: "please keep in mind that we consider both text (CRL) and pictures (screen caps/reference images) when reviewing submissions." However, we never ask for a photo with a measurement scale to check that everything is OK, we only ask to correct the TD in the case that it is clear that something is not measuring what it should... We can also be wrong. We may think something is wrong and it's really ok... The CRL states(L1, Basic): -The total length is approximately 7.50" (190.5mm). -End caps are approximately .78" (20mm)in width. I think RS should not send the clips screwed on in the kits, because when you glue the end caps, it can happen as in your case. You could have glued them without inserting them all the way and you would have had the millimeters you needed... What glue did you use? If it is cyanoacrylate, it will be difficult to remove it...
  6. The armor looks great (the TD is a little crooked and a little high with respect to the canvas belt,a simple dressing issue, lol). You shouldn't have any problems for basic. P.S.: Did you check the the gaps and endcaps on your TD, that @gmrhodes13 pointed out?
  7. Hi Matt. Try filling the inside of the sliding bolt by gluing some black foam (or any other black material, being careful not to let it show from the outside). This will prevent the spring from sliding forward. Gluing the spring to the end cap doesn't seem like a bad idea either(using a glue that withstands the hard life of a trooper).
  8. Hello Julien!!! Welcome aboard, Trooper!!!
  9. Hola Guillermo, Bienvenido a bordo!!! Welcome aboard!!!
