You'll probably also want to make some bicep clips to attach them to the shoulder straps. What kit is this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucnak[TK] Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 Your thighs are at different heights. Back plate is crooked and yes, bring it down as was suggested. Remove the velcro from the back of your shoulder straps. Give them some more bend so they stay down. Your belt should sit a bit lower in the front (ABS part should just be touching the bottom of the ab plate) and significantly lower in the back. TD clips should ideally sit touching the end caps of your TD. Your butt plate, your chest plate, and your kidney have some flashing around the side. Not sure if there is no mold mark on the ab, but it's weird that the curve is going back upwards where it meets the kidney plate...normally it should cruve downwards and meet the kidney plate if you haven't shimmed. You could bring your dropboxes up a bit and align them with the ends of the belt. I'm not sure how much of this would actually prevent you from being approved. I would actually contact your Garrison GML and get their feedback. Some of this stuff is not a dealbreaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addertime[TK] Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 The biceps and thighs look loose. Maybe consider tailoring them a bit? As it was explained to me, about a 1/2 inch is plenty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
