D rings

Chriz · 3rd December 2008, 18:35

I'm after a little help please.

I fitted two CD 'billy rings' one on each side of the waist strap, just to the rear of the weight pouches on the standard harness. The centre ring doesn't protrude far enough out to be of any use. Anyone know of any that do?

Cheers

Chris

If you us lead blocks in the pouch Put 1 block under eacch ring as a spacer to lift the rings out of the webbing. if your concerned agout the permanant weight you could make up a packer out of plastic or nylon about 18-22mm thick.This worked for me

Try using buddy verti-clips,
they make the rings stick out 90deg.
