Which Strapping System?

[Elegance[TK]]

Hi ladies and gents, just out of interest what do you reckon the best fitting method is, "Origional Strapping" or standard "Snap'n'Strap"?

 

thanks

That's entirely up to your personal preferences. As long as you do it properly they are both great systems. Though it should be noted that some aspects of the original strapping system is more suitable for more flexible armor like the 1.5 mm kits from TM and RS.

Thanks, im looking at the 2mm acr-capped from TM. Could anyone give pro's and con's of the 2 systems if poss.

 

thanks in advance!!

Seems to me that the 2mm acrylic-capped ABS is too brittle to stand up to the original strapping system method of using wire brackets installed in the return edges. But better to ask TM himself, since he offers both options with his kits.
