  1. Chris is correct, my first few troops were a learning experience to say the least. Modifications and changes were required after the first few troops to get the armor fitting as it should. Once i got a pack there were more adjustments with my TD.. Today the longest ive been in armor for 7 hours with 2 drink breaks. (Full gear/w pack and T21) Hydration is key, once your in armor you will not be going to the bathroom and sweating the whole time. Ive moved over to UA 20% compression heatgear to keep the temp low wile in armor and it extends my troop time significantly.
  2. He did this for me too, tried out the chest and it was too small so im holding as of now till new larger chest is created. Chris
  3. Im waiting for Walt to make a larger chest and back mound as thats where the majority of my girth is after going through SWAT at the MEPD.. Gaps=bad lol
  4. Unfortunately my TX project was halted. The WTF bucket was great, sold it to a local member for their FX update.. RT-Mod said they would not offer back, still only option for the bigger troopers is AM 2.0.. Let me see what i can do about getting pics back up.. **Fixed**
  5. This is the Battlefront Shadowtrooper /w jetpack. Would be very cool to see this added to the CRL as an option..
  6. I have one of each of Jays pauldrons they are things of beauty, Im TD 42115 and i approve this message
  7. Ebay actually http://www.ebay.ca/itm/151794823274 AFX helmet lenses, nice and sturdy..
  8. Absolutely he is, i have his bucket, but finding something that fits is a different story, 36-38 inch waist and a 49.5 inch chest.. WTF is way too small.. AM2.0 is about my only potion right now. unfortunately i have new priorities that have stopped the acquisition of armor :-(
  9. OK, just an update here, Finally finished MEPD SWAT with my TD (1st Canadian YA YA). Now that its over i have discovered i may need larger chest, back and shoulders for specialist (close the chest/back gaps) AM2.0 was still too narrow, RTmod was perfect fit over the AP i was running. Unfortunately RT doesn't make Black armor, was thinking going WTF and having custom chest and back made.. Since ive been back to the gym ive lost circumference from mid section but gained another half an inch in chest.
  10. I my self am also loving the look of the MPs on each hip, have also seen the an MP on the shoulder with the hips & the pauldron.. As my primary is a TD, im partial to the pouches look..
  11. Welcome back, cant wait to start mine
  12. Thanks gents, I used novos. Mix between by hand and a mini polisher
  13. WTF bucket done, 3 stage polish ohhhh Shinny... See first post..
  14. Bill, that doesn't look bad at all, good to know there is someone local. I do prefer the trooper1 (MEPD) pauldrons my self, have one of each (Orange, White and Black) Not sure if the puffy detail is an issue with spec ops or not..
  15. I just saw this Gl with the sale.
