theonlyski 3 #1 January 27, 2012 Any ideas as to why a piece of type-4 would be folded in half, sewn on top of the main pin cover flap of a Javelin? It's sewn on both sides with 2 sets of zig-zags per side, with a small gap in the middle (almost like a stow for a rubberband?)"I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
popsjumper 2 #2 January 27, 2012 So the packer can use his pull up cord to tie up the flap to get the bag in the tray easier? Hell F***...I don't know. Sounds good though. That's Hell Fire, my man. My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus. Falcon5232, SCS8170, SCSA353, POPS9398, DS239 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sundevil777 94 #4 January 27, 2012 I think popsjumper got it right regarding the purpose. Not many would alter their rig in such a visible way to provide for this small convenience during packing. They should have done it in red to match.People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyMan 7 #5 January 27, 2012 Any sign of the rig being used as a static line setup? I wonder if a bite of the SL was stowed in a rubber band that flap. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Though, it would explain why the container showed up with no main dbag or PC, but I don't believe it was a SL setup."I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pchapman 262 #21 January 27, 2012 I've seen another rigger build pouches for the spare brake line stowage on the back of the toggles. Much more neatly done than in your photos, without the rainbow motif, and integrated better into the toggle. It is a neat and clean stowage method, but I personally think the space available is a bit too tight, at least when trying to stuff older, softer, fuzzier brake line into there.
