giric thren Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 i have purchased a set of AP armor and i am 6'1 1/2 and i weigh around 150 will the gaps between the nees and back be too noticeable??? Someone told me that he was 6'3 and it fit fine (sorry i dont remember who offhand) was that due to modification? Also has anyone taken a dremmel or sandpaper to their AP helmets to get rid of the process of twisting the helmet on? And finally how do i delete old posts of the same question that i posted?

Daetrin[Admin] Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 I'm 6'0 with TE2 so in a similar situation. There will be a bit of a gap, but there's not much to be done about it, and you'd be in the same situation with RT/FX (the latest FX thighs are in some ways worse, as they are now molded to have more room back there). Alas, for anything other than an FX there really is nothing to be done about having to put the helmet on sideways. This is how the helmets are actually supposed to be.

TK8280 Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 I don't think you would have any better luck with any of the other armors out there, and your not that tall, so I don't think it will be that much of an issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troopermaster Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 What is the length of the thighs and shins on the AP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK8280 Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 the thighs are about 14 & 3/4" long, and the shins are about 14 & 1/4" long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BH5204[501st] Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 I think you'll be fine. Just tweak the fit and find the happy medium, so your not too black in any one spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well unless there's another 6'3'' guy in AP armor, I think that would be me I didn't add anything to the armor, I'm using it with the precut lines that came with it. I did enlarge the head hole to fit my head in more easily .. I must have taken off about 1 cm around .. it doesn't show at all, the trim fits now better and it's way easier to get fit it on! Check my ANH armor thread if you want to see how the armor fits on me here: http://whitearmor.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=1729 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
