Awesome! Good luck brother!

[starsaber25[Admin]]

Very nice job Erick. Let’s bring another EIB to the ECG!

[gmrhodes13[Staff]]

Nice work trooper, you may want to remove a little excess paint from the gum area: Frown is painted gray and does not leave the teeth area

 

 

Screws on TD clips could be closer to the ends of the clips  

 

You may also want to check the length of your TD, the gap between the end caps and cover plate look a little narrow

 

 

A few other images the DO's like to see:

 

* Front and both sides of the knee sniper plate

* Thigh ammo strip rivets outside and inside 

 

Good luck with approval

Cod Rivets

[gmrhodes13[Staff]]

Cod rivet looks a little on the large side: Rivet on must be brass or silver in color, approximately 5/16" (8mm) in diameter and is not painted.

Hi Erick!

 

Thanks so much for your submission! I'll be doing your review. 

 

Like @gmrhodes13 pointed out, there's a couple fixes that will need to be made in order to proceed.

 

First, it looks like some of your frown paint will need to be cleaned up. I zoomed in to mark out an area so that it's a bit clearer what we're after, but take a look at both the upper and lower edges of the teeth to ensure there's no gray paint on the 'gums'. If you look at the reference photos, you'll see that you can even err on the side of underpainting. It should be just a bit of time with some mineral spirits or paint thinner and a q-tip or toothpick to clean up the paint. (Apologies for the sub-par photo; I'm on my phone.)

 

 

Reference Images:

 

Next, your cod rivet does look quite large. What hardware did you use for it? Generally we try to shy away from exact measurements, but proportionally, yours looks too large. Our available reference photos of that area aren't great, but you can see the rivet is noticeably smaller than the snaps, while on your kit they look the same size. On my own kit I used the same split rivets I used for the left side ab/kidney connection.

 

 

Reference Image:

 

Finally, you're missing a few required photos:

 

- Sniper knee left/right/front

- Shoulder strap connection

- Interior strapping

 

You can also reference the attached checklist.

 

Please reach out to me or any other DO if you have any additional questions. You're almost there!

I'll be posting the rest of the missing pictures tonight. As far as the cod rivet, I just used a female snap. To be honest, I never even thought that would be wrong. But, now really looking at the reference photos, it's obvious. I'll be fixing this tonight as well. Now the bucket fix will take me a little time. I have a troop coming up tomorrow night and I don't want to mess with it until after that. I hope to have all additional things you need to you before Thanksgiving. Should I just add to this post or gather everything and resubmit? Thanks for your help! 

[illusionz_09[TK]]

Looking like a great build.

After the minor updates that have been indicated, there should be no issue for approval.

 

Good Luck and welcome to the ranks.

[TKSpartan[Staff]]

Hi Erick, Great to see you're applying for EIB.  just minor adjustment and go get it.

Here's a before and after of my bucket frown update. I had to put them side by side to really see the difference.

Hi Erick, as per the CRL states about the shoulder bridge connection:

 

Chest and back shall be connected with a white fabric or preferably elastic strap at the shoulders.

 

 

 

 

 

You may want to add a photo showing the white fabric or elastic.

 

cheers.
