OK - I'm fed up.
I have the newer ACB 20 - the ones with the 2" fastex buckles. Not the ACB 30's with the scubapro-esque metal buckle.
The ACB 20 (right side) has 2" webbing - and this webbing threads through a fastex buckle, this buckle fastens into the weight pocket, and is pulled tight to keep the weight close to the plate.
I'm supposed to thread the 2" webbing through the stiff-assed webbing loop on the light. 2 issues:
1) I can't jam the fastex buckle through the SA webbing loop. So I have to remove the buckle every time I want to attach the light.
2) Of course, the ACB webbing never gets real tight - so my canister is always flopping around somewhat.
What a pain.
OK MacGyvers - I want a way to cllp the canister securely onto the ACB that makes it removable without having to unthread and re-thread the fastex buckle. Sort of a secure slip on flambus, as opposed to the SA loop. Do I need pictures, or am I being clear?
My alternative is to keep the canister on ALL THE TIME - not a great option. Unthreading the ACB every time to remove it is lame. I want a slip in version. A secure slip-on version lest my canister fall into the abyss.
PLEASE HELP.....
Thanks -
