Captain_Wordo[TK] Posted May 31, 2014 Report Posted May 31, 2014 (edited) Well, I would like to know if I want only basic approval for a HWT, do I have to use this style of pouches? The text says 'Black in color, made of canvas, leather or leather-like German MP-40 style ammo pouches.' So could I also use the style that the sandtroopers use? Same with the backpack The text for this says 'Styled after the ANH Sandtrooper packs or a simplified pack as seen in the video game'. The backpack shown in the link looks different and not exactly like the anh sandtrooper packs. Or are also higher approvals possible and the shown parts are only examples? I would be glad to get your advice. Markus Edited September 15, 2021 by gmrhodes13 photo updated Quote
SmilesLikeJoker Posted June 1, 2014 Report Posted June 1, 2014 As far as pouches go, you can pretty much use what a Sandy uses. If you look around some of these threads, you'll see approved HWT's with them. There is always someone selling pouches so plenty of examples.As far as a backpack, you can use the same that a Sandy uses or you can go with something more along the lines of the Battlefront game pack. What you see in the picture is just an example. You'll see both types of backpacks in the threads. For great packs, check out anything by Dirty Boy or Quartermaster (here and at MEPD).My only personal recommendation is with the backpack. If you think you 'might' want to go Sandy at some point down the road, definitely go with a Sandy backpack. I have no intentions taking my current armor Sandy so I went with a game version pack. If I were to change my mind down the road, I'll have to get another pack. Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted June 1, 2014 Report Posted June 1, 2014 I agree with Patrick. Personally I have always preferred leather pouches, and that fact that I have a canvas one was only because it was what was left over after I sold my sandy. The CRL model was the best we had at the time I created the CRL. There are certainly better looking HWT's now and we should probably swap it out. Quote
Captain_Wordo[TK] Posted June 1, 2014 Author Report Posted June 1, 2014 Thank you very much Patrick and Paul! I was just a little unsure cause most of the time the parts have to look like the shown parts so they hit the right accuracy. Now I know that I can use the 'sandy' style And also who I can ask Thanks again, Markus Quote

I really like the leather ones pictured in the CRL that's why I went with them. Quote
