dejango[TK] Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Check your shoulder bells to make sure the outside has plastic film on it. On mine i learned too late that they messed up on one and the film was on the inside, but i had already drawn on the sides a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucnak[TK] Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 You're making good progress! I assume that no canvas belt listed in your first post means you will be replacing the Anovos belt? I've gotten the impression that the supplied one is flimsy (based on photos and others' feedback), so a lot of people replace it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayen_s[TK] Posted April 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 (edited) Fitting forearms. I remove wrist side return edge. I remove elbow side return edge. I notice increased mobility with return edge removed. I learned the easiest way to remove return edge is by cutting from inside portion of the armor. See Trooperbay video on how it is done. http://youtu.be/Qq6RYjY_inQ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Edited April 15, 2016 by ayen_s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
