gus 1 #1 March 21, 2004 I just picked up my new Wings today and I'm not sure whether they've put the bm mods on. I haven't seen an unpacked Wings with dynamic/open corners up close before but to me it doesn't look like they have . Sanity check please! The bridle is about 7 foot pin to pc. Is that 'extended'?

jmfreefly 0 #3 March 22, 2004 Yeah, I agree with Chuck -- That looks like normal corners to me. I am pretty sure that you can just un-pick the stitching and add a bartack (If I remember correctly). But SRI should be able to fix this easily. j Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jmfreefly 0 #5 March 22, 2004 Yeah, I can empathize. SRI usually has a reasonable track record, but I know of several rigs (one of mine) that arrived with errors. That being said, they were good about follow-ups when complaints were given/ errors uncovered. But, like I said, I am pretty sure that the only difference between the mod and the normal main pack tray is the stitching in the corners need to be picked. SRI may want a bartack at the bottom of the corner, but that is a question to pose to SRI. I know other rig mfgs have retro mods out there for their containers, and in general that is all that is involved. I think with Wings it is even more straightforward Hope that helped. Can't really say about the bridle length though.. I don't remember what the spec is. If I recall, my bridle didn't look any longer either. j Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gus 1 #6 March 22, 2004 Ankie at Sunrise got back to me straight away to say that yes, they'd somehow forgotten to do the Birdman mods. She's sending me a new dbag/bridle/pc and I can get my rigger to unstitch the corners. GusOutpatientsOnline.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leroydb 0 #7 March 22, 2004 i agree... MINE are cut all the way to the bottom corner on my javelinLeroy ..I knew I was an unwanted baby when I saw my bath toys were a toaster and a radio... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmfreefly 0 #8 March 23, 2004 Good. (hey, I am right sometimes! Glad it is something that is an easy fix for you, and didn't require you to send the rig back. j Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
