Hi Joseph, thanks for your application for EI, lets check you out!!

CRL and EIB Application Requirements:

All submission photos are present however there is something we will require you address before we can award you the EI badge.

As per the CRL for level 2 EI for ESB, there shall be no or minimal overlap of the kidney plate to the back plate.

 

The back plate should sit right on top of the kidney plate.

There are two possibilities here.

1. You could shorten the shoulder straps, so the back plate sits higher up and reduces or eliminates the overlap.

2. Lower the Ab and kidney plate, or even a little bit of both 1 and 2.

Once you have had a play around please post up a new rear and side photo and we can continue with your review.

 

Thanks for your patience, and we are here to help, and great set of armour by the way :duim:

Hi Joseph, thanks for your application for EI, lets continue on from where we left off

CRL and EIB Application Requirements:

All submission photos are present and your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for Expert Infantry. Welcome trooper!     :salute:

 

Other-Armor Fit/Assembly:

In this section we review observations made by your fellow troopers and ourselves. Some observations may lead to suggestions to improve the overall look of your armor. If any suggestion affects any application, it will be listed separately in the above or below sections.

 

Thank you for posting up the correction photos, you look much better now, perhaps shorten the straps between the back and kidney in the center to try and bring the gap down a bit.

 

The knee ammo pack should be mounted in line with the top of the ridge and not really protrude above it. Also the rivet should be a little closer to the edge. Really the only way to fix this is to drill a knew hole in the knee pack and fill the old hole in with ABS paste, sand and polish it.

This is an accuracy thing more than anything and is a suggestion to gt you looking the best you can

We will also require a photo of both sides of this knee pack in a Centurion application

Butt Plate:  This is popping out and up over the bottom of the Kidney plate. which might just be a photo problem, but if it persists, you can try and shorten the outer most straps to keep it closer to your body.

Centurion Suggestions:

 

As per CRL

For level three certification (if applicable):

  • No return edge on the inside of the front of the forearm is allowed.
  •  

You still have some return edge that can be taken out in the area indicated.

We also require a photo of this end with both fore arm pieces so we can see that there is no return edge left on either.

Only other suggestion based on what we can see in your photos is make sure you close up those side gaps between the Ab and Kidney plates, they are close enough for Expert Infantry but need to be completely closed for level 3.

 

You have done an excellent job with your armour, and only a couple of minor things to sort out.

Make sure you follow the Centurion CRL carefully and post up all the required photos in a Centurion application.

 

Again Congratulations and we hope to see a Centurion app from you in the future
