E-11 mounting bracket for HWT Pack

[magni[TK]]

So I saw in some other thread someone mounted there E-11 on the side of the pack. I liked the idea of adding the extra blaster instead of it sitting in the bin. Here's what I came up with so far.the washer will hold 1/2" velcro strap and bolt to pack.this shot shows how it locks around T-track. I'll cushion with soft side velcro.here it is taped up ready for paint

Quick test fit before painting

I saw that same idea for the first time at a troop yesterday, and I am going to give it a try.

Interesting idea!  I'm not really clear on what actually holds the E11 onto the mount, though?

Perfect spot for a Rubies!

 

More details, please.

This could be cool. I have been mounting mine on my side of the pack with a simple strap and buckle. Can't wait to see how this works.

The blaster is held on by velcro straps made for extension cords.I've mounted the bracket with fender washers/lock washers and nuts.

I wonder if we will have problems with kids trying to grab it....?

I thought that too, but it is high up and it's strong with straps pinched between washers. Plus one tug you should feel it. I myself don't stand around much to give them a chance.

I have not had that issue and I have trooped with it 3 times on my pack.

My pack is now 22" wide magazine to pipe! Still should be ok to clear doorways. Slowly!!!

That's a pretty good idea. I just put industrial strength Velcro on the backside of the holster and the side of the HWT Pack. Easy peasy

How did you make the bracket itself?

[magni[TK]]

I made the bracket out of .060 black styrene and some .060 X .250 white styrene. It's 12" long X 1 3/16" wide(just wider than T-track as seen in photo). The height is at 2 different levels to accommodate extra width in front. It's 1/2" tall in front and 5/8" tall in the white area. I curved the supports under white strips to cradle the blaster.

 

1/2" notches were cut in sides to allow velcro strap to be inserted. I lined them up with blaster and mounting of pack in mind. The 1" fender washer provides support and holds velcro as seen in photos. I used the same washers on inside of pack to make a sturdy mount. Also note the small stips I added in front of support to cradle the center T-track. No shifting can happen now. All blue areas were later covered with the soft side of velcro to provide scratch protection.

Sorry I don't. It was a one off for my pack. I just shared incase anyone wanted to build one.

Shawn(Crooknight) could probably help you out. He makes all the goodies for packs. Give him a PM or he might be along and see himself.

 

Good Luck!
