BananoPower22[TK] Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 TD and TK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quartermaster[501st] Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 Hey Matt. Quartermaster here. Your TD style pack build is looking great. Just wanted to add some info for you... 1. The frame on the TD style pack should have a 33 degree bend on the down tubes. 2. There is no antenna on the TD or Game Version of the HWT pack. I have added it to some of my Game Version pack builds at the request of the buyer, but have made it removable so that it will pass EIB in the photos. 3. LED lights in the radio dial also very cool, just make sure you have them off for your submission pics. There are some excellent vendors over at the MEPD for very specific and screen accurate parts if you are looking for stuff. Let me know and I would be happy to steer you in the right direction.

out0fstep Posted October 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 i need to confirm that the 3rd ammo pouch can be switched with a holster like it states on the 501st site req for the hwt. the holster needs to be riveted to my belt, and before i do that, i need to know officially if it is accepted with that build? GMLs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
out0fstep Posted October 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 and also do they have the 2 ammo boxes that hang from the belt? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 If that's what the CRL states, that's what it states. You can use snaps or Chicago screws instead of rivets for the holster and then simply unsnap it when not in use. Or, use rivets on the outside for cosmetic purposes and then use snaps or even just velcro on the inside of the belt to affix the holster. The external rivets/snaps will be covered by the ammo pouch in any event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
out0fstep Posted October 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 (edited) never heard of a chicago screw..? o.O looked them up, great idea! these also solved another issue i ran into! thanks Edited October 3, 2011 by out0fstep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BananoPower22[TK] Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 That's what I have planned, but I haven't done it yet though. Use chicago screws to remove the holster when I'm trooping with the HWT. Beats the hell out of having to buy a new belt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beats the hell out of having to buy a new belt yea i think im gonna pick these up today, and actually the forums states that an ammo pouch can be worn in place of the 3rd ammo pouch. do you use the 2 ammo boxes on ur hwt? i see that 501st basic they are ok to use, but the higher levels dont use them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BananoPower22[TK] Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 The third pouch on the left hip is optional, you can take it on and off as you like, but the pouch on the right hip and left shoulder are mandatory for 501st/EI/Centurion. I bought three of 'em, so I use them all. Personally, the more the merrier. I think it looks cooler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
out0fstep Posted October 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 im going to have the holster, just got the ok from GML, i personally thing a hwt should be heavly armed lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
