Here is my newish ammo belt. It holds 28 darts, fits comfortaly and doesn't hinder my movement at all. I use it with my 3k I got from a friend over the summer. The belt part is a Guitar Hero 3 guitar belt.





I do realize the belt looks crappy, but it is functional.



Full suit.



Leg pieces.



Arm pieces.



Chest "plate"



The helmet that looks like a bird house.

Is it just me or is your 3K barrel extremely crooked?

Dude, i've been gone for a month and my grammar is fine. Fix yours up.

Very inventive, I like it. Your barrel as NerfOnFier said looks very crooked, looks like like it is going down way to much. Other then that you did a very good job.

Yes, my new barrel need adjustment. It is aligned with the crack that splits the gun in its halves, I just need to straighten it. Thanks for the comments guys.

I like the belt a lot. Where'd you get the material you put the cpvc on?

[Magic]

If i'm not mistaken he said he uses a guitar hero guitar strap for it.

[Noodleownz]

Very nice! I'm going to make one. How big was each cpvc piece you cut?

[death by cheez]

Roughly 1/2-3/4 inches. I am bad at cutting this stuff, even with a pipe cutter.

[aamiller321]

Really now Tonto? Cool strap but can you buy the strap for the guitar in stores? Otherwise these will be hard to make.

[rippen11]

How did you get the ends of the belt to stay together?

Some masking tape and hot glue.

@aamiller321, you cannot buy the straps seperately, but you can go to a local store that has fabric and get some really durable stuff.

[Bullshit Dragon]

Simply on the topic, Ryan##### uses a shotgun bandoleer for his ammo belt, and I can attest to its usefulness. If you go to a fabric store to get the straps, ask for webbing. If you can't get it there, look up www.strapworks.com (link originally supplied by VACC) and go with the "webbing" category.

Hope I was helpful.

I made a similar one out of CPVC and duct tape that I used at HbH. However the CPVC was way too tight and deformed my darts, hurting range a bit. It did work well as far as reload times and mobility were concerned.

[death by cheez]

I still have to work out a couple of things with the cpvc, but I will post cardboard body armor sometime this week in addition to the stuff in this thread.

Thanks again for the positive comments everyone.
