Outer Rim Tim Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Hi there- Another day, another question... What is the width of the strap that your drop boxes hang on? I'm guessing it's either 1 inch, or a half inch. Just curious what the forum thinks. Thanks for the help! ~Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikedwelle94[TK] Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 The CRL doesn't seem to specify the width of the strap, but I'd go for half an inch. That's what I did. You really shouldn't be able to see most of those straps anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Aloha[Admin] Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 3/4" or 20 mm -Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK bondservnt[501st] Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 drop boxes should be mounted so that the box is right up against the belt. in the film they were looped over the canvas and riveted to the backing dropbox.

Darth Aloha[Admin] Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 1" white elastic for the drop boxes. I had no idea. I stand corrected. If doesn't look that wide in the pics of the RS belt, but you're a guy who has probably seen it in person -Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
