how to attach a sniper knee for Sandtrooper

[Quebectrooper]

should i go to MEPD or someone here done it?

 

Glue or rivets?

Ketchup or mustard?

Most people rivet a backing to the shin, then glue the plate onto the backing via layers of plastic / shims between the plate and backing. Here's how I did mine. It's rock solid.

I did something similar to Terry. I used one of Slaveonepilot's TD knee plates, the laser etched one that is in layers. I had to build up a few pieces under it or it would be right in my knee. I angled it out a bit toward the top and used E6000 for the whole thing, been through countless troops over the last year and have had no problems.

Here's a way to make one from scratch. The mounting is pretty much how most people mount them (shims, angle it outwards to prevent catching on bottom of thigh)
