Echo[TK] Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 In looking at various posts images etc, I've noticed that some have drop boxes fastened with two rivets and some have it with one. What are the advantages of either? Is it relative to how it fits on you and one hangs better depending on your size and build? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIMpixels Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 Mine are fixed with two but I have been informed, much to my shame, that the screen accurate way is one rivet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locitus[Admin] Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 And some were just glued on to the elastic. 1 rivet should be the most common but there were differences. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echo[TK] Posted March 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 (edited) Great, thanks. : ) Oh and as for attaching the ammo belt to the canvas, how useful is using Chicago screws instead of rivets? How often or likely is it the ammo part would be taken off? Repairs, cleaning? Other? Edited March 7, 2013 by Echo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyInWhite[TK] Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 Mine are glued & velcro'ed in the cleanest way I could manage it. I have never removed my ammo from the belt... hmm. I have snaps going through the canvas to the ab plate, and the ammo belt is held on with velcro. Never been a problem. Hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 I use two rivets on my Stunt belt and after doing some searching a more accurate one rivet for my Hero belt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
