SheaJeff[TK] Posted July 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 For my waist pouches I superglued two tape measure clips on each end and they hang nicely. My chest one hangs from my pauldron. The angle wouldn't ride right on my backpack strap. Pushing my chest plate to the side. Plus after 4-5 hrs I can lose pack and still have all the pouches. Something like this? Springfield Leather Company Black Large Belt Clip https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DV19JE8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_McQGxbKVKTWVR It would be great, but the clip would probably scratch the armor.

magni[TK] Posted July 10, 2016 Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 Under the belt? Not seen,right. But you could use the soft side of some industrial Velcro on clip face. Sent from my LGMS631 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allan1313[TK] Posted July 10, 2016 Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 So here is what I did, uses the nylon to create a loop, close it with snaps, then added Velcro on the back of the belt and the strap to keep it from moving. As you see it took me 2 times to get proper placement of the snap so it looked right. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheaJeff[TK] Posted July 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 Allan, Great solution. Thanks for the pictures. How did you do the bag to the pauldron? Pictures? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allan1313[TK] Posted July 10, 2016 Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 I put it on the shoulder strap of my pack. Just slid it on. Nothing fancy haha Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SheaJeff[TK] Posted July 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Sent from my LGMS631 using Tapatalk Is that square of Velcro the only thing holding it onto the pauldron? Or is it lopped somewhere in case the Velcro pulls away? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magni[TK] Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 The Velcro is covering the top rivit from scratching my chest plate. The other rivit is to the right in photo Sent from my LGMS631 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheaJeff[TK] Posted July 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Ah. Got it. I'm looking at it on the phone and didn't catch that part. Nice solution! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allan1313[TK] Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Its got adhesive on the back. Just stuck it on. If it ever starts to come off I will just use some e6000 to stick it back on.

SheaJeff[TK] Posted July 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Allan, What size webbing is that? I was looking at mine this morning and due to the angle of the loops on the pouch, it looks like the pouch will be slightly angled. Looks like this is what's happening to yours in the picture, correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allan1313[TK] Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Its pretty straight. Look at the fist picture I posted. You can always adjust how it sits with the Velcro. The webbing is 1.5" wide. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SheaJeff[TK] Posted July 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 I want to buy my wife a new sewing machine so that she can sew the industrial strength velcro to elastic, but I know I'LL end up doing the sewing! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheaJeff[TK] Posted July 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2016 (edited) Just a quick question. My AM 2.0 kit came with 2 belts as shown. Which one is correct for HWT and ANH TK? Edited July 16, 2016 by SheaJeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheaJeff[TK] Posted July 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 And which button covers are correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allan1313[TK] Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 I think they are pretty much they same and can be used for either. The one just has the button recess. But I think either can by used interchangeably. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magni[TK] Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 I'd use the one you have the button on. With the button that's sitting correctly on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think either can by used interchangeably. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk UKswrath is saying that it should be the one without the recessed area and that I need to take the "larger" squares and put them on the flat belt with the dimples. Perhaps I'll use that belt for the TK (with the holster and drop boxes attached) and buy another canvas belt and use the indented belt with the smaller squares for HWT if it doesn't matter. That way I don't have to worry about drop boxes and the pouch when I switch between the two. The CRL for HWT and TK aren't specific with enough detail. What do you guys think? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magni[TK] Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 I'd go with what Tony says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allan1313[TK] Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 I went with a 2nd belt set up for my HWT so I didn't have to worry about that stuff. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
