Snakeman[TK] Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 I´ve ordered the full commission armor from RS. Scheduled to arrive at the end of next week. In your experience... Does it take a lot of modification to join the 501:st? They have gotten my exact measurements.... Anyone with experience who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob .T .[TK] Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 If your measurements were accurate , it should pass straight in with no modification . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snakeman[TK] Posted January 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) If your measurements were accurate , it should pass straight in with no modification . Like music to my ears... I took the measurements 10 times to get the exact ones. Hopefully the "holiday-weight" won´t f**k it up... ;-) Edited January 15, 2016 by Snakeman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Actually, once you get basic approval you should be able to apply immediately for EIB with the full RS commission set, Magnus. After that, all you should need is rubber or latex hand guards and the correct boots to go for Centurion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have also read a lot of treads about the abs versus the pvc verison. its seems the comunety is split between whats best for trooping. Although Rs told me the pvc Version is the best for that. Can someone please point me in the right direction here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snakeman[TK] Posted January 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 I ordered the PVC. It was sent out yesterday. Hopefully it arrives next week. Wether or not pvc is the best for trooping i couldn´t say. I choose it because of the "yellowing". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleAsianYoda Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 My armor was a full RS commission. As many can tell, i'm not the standard body type, but my specific problem is that I am shorter than most so I had to trim the let pieces and the fore-arms. Also, I had to forego the way they were using to connect the body pieces to fit me better and ease of transport. They get the width dimensions correct, but height I had to fix myself. Was easy, but I had to learn accordingly. My suggestion though is to have them prior to shipping add extra padding to protect the sniper knee plate and the shoulder straps as the knee plate was damaged along with one of the straps.
