UPT Tandem RSL mod

Recommended Posts

Hey, just did my first RSL/Bungee mod on a Sigma. I used a #0 punch in the reserve flap for the grommet, but I couldn't get the UPT supplied grommet into the #0 hole. The grommet is stainless and extra long. Then I used a #1 punch and it fit nice. I think this is because of the stiffener plate. Anyone else have this problem?

I've always found using the next size up punch when going through a stiffener works better when setting a new grommet. So yes, I'm using the #1 punch on the mod as well.

Funny, my old #0 punch worked fine.

The thing that has me confused is that UPT gave me two different types of yellow Collins lanyards. Some have hook Velcro, but the others don't.
When I tried to install the modified RSL in a Sigma, I could not find any pile Velcro to mate it to????
