You will want to get your belt a bit lower in the back. The top front corners of your posterior plate are flaring out. This can be corrected with strapping there or "V tabs" Finally, you may want to trim back the return edge on the tops of the thighs. This could cause some pretty uncomfortable pinching. Ok thanks @gmrhodes13 for the tips. We did notice the butt was flaring out. Is there any specs on how to make the “v” tabs? I don’t quite understand without seeing them on the armor. Quote

With a heat gun or oven you bend strips of ABS plastic into the shape of a V, only glue one side and the other remains free to allow movement when you bend. Just helps stop the butt plate from pushing back from the back plate. 2 Quote
DocDan[TK] Posted August 3, 2025 Author Report Posted August 3, 2025 Great news all…I got approved by my NEG GML team! I want to thank everyone here especially @gmrhodes13 for the detailed guidance along the way. I plan to go for EI next. Here a few shots of my first 4 troops, with the very first being a performer with Weird Al! I am still pinching myself! Yup, that’s me! 1 Quote
