Ideas for RPG carrying pack

[CoreyD]

I've been working on some RPG-7's with removable rockets, but I think it'd be cool to have a way to carry the extra rounds. Has anyone tried making a RPG round carrying rig? I know that Ultimate Soldier made an RPG pack with the VC soldier, but it's one molded piece.

I'm trying to scratch up something like the photo below on an existing LBV. Any ideas? Maybe using those tiny cocktail straws for holding the rounds?

The coffee stirrer straws is a good idea but they don't take paint or glue well. You could use them for the tubes and then use green stuff to sculpt around them and add a backpack peg to it.

I made one long ago using Bazooka's backpack. But I think I'd go the green stuff route this time.

I'd make it out of soft goods. Most would suggest hockey tape but I prefer industrial paper towels.

I like KT's idea. Really thin cotton boxers material has worked well for me in the past.

While working up a fictional Panzerfaust 60 quiver, I remembered what the Germans cooked up for the Panzerschreck:

Similar set-up for an RPG-7 gunner:

Here are some inputs

That wooden one you posted, KT, would make for an awesome decorative shelf. Straps and clips in place. Maybe wine storage? I don't know, something...but it's seriously cool.

I picked up the 1/6 scale shotgun shell pouch to try and adapt it as an RPG carrier. It might end up being too big, but it was only $5, so what the hell.

That could be cool. Would you paint it?

 

[CoreyD]

I'd probably do some drybrushing, but not a full paint, no.

Thats a fantástic idea
