Side plates are for pussies.
You can get rid of that remote antennae mount and just run the antennae up through the molle loops to get the profile a little lower. It's a bitch to get it up through there and definitely isn't going anywhere. These aren't the most comfortable thing in the world, but again, they'll lower the overall profile of your shit. Also not the best if you're that guy that always has commo problems. You can also rubber band those tourniquets under those front mags. Might interfere with your fag pouch, though. But lower profile. |

I just switched from the SKD PIG to a Crye JPC 2.0 (thanks @rescuegunner) and figured I could do a quick writeup while im drinking beer and watching TV so anyone in a similar boat has a little info to start with. First off, there is absolutely nothing wrong with my PIG. I love that PC, but after 3 deployments with it, I think this next trip needed a new piece of gear. It still looks good, albeit a bit gross, but everything has held up just fine. I figured I would roll the dice and try something new, and maybe a few things would work out better that way. I still have the PIG is I just cant make the JPC work, or if it just cant match what I got out of the SKD. In direct comparison, both are pretty low profile carriers, but not too low that they cant carry a combat load. The JPC seems slightly smaller, and the skeleton cummerbund definitely makes it look much more so. With that said they are extremely comparable with regard to function and utility. Ive used the AVS and Tactical Tailor RPC in combat before, and I think these two are the best out of the four I have experience with. Here are my notes on differences so far: - PIG shoulder straps are much better padded, the JPC thin straps seem to slide around a bit. May swap those out for some thicker ones. - PIG has velcro molle all the way up the chest, which was convenient for adding things like a chest strap a little more easily. - PIG sideplate carriers affix via velcro and can be pulled on and off easily, JPC only offers sideplate carriers for 6x6 plates, not standard Army 7x9, had to go with the SKD molle carrier and molle them in, which was a huge PITA and not easy to remove on the fly, which I liked with my PIG - PIG has a double cummerbund flap which makes it easy to secure one side and use one to don/doff - JPC has a chest admin pocket, has internal elastic loops and a generous space for GRG's and smart cards - JPC front flap is removeable and modular, using either the crye panels or standard swiftclip panels, has two sets of loops to attach clips either by a hanging clip or mounted lower with a QASM connector - JPC 2.0 has an emergency doffing capability - JPC has a zip on back panel capability, which im actually finding is pretty cool - JPC has slightly smaller profile than PIG, which can be good or bad depending on your needs. It barely fills my requirements, but definitely works, I have a bit of stuff I need to have mounted. - JPC seems a lot more breathable Ive only gotten the JPC out for one training event so far, so im sure ill be tweaking it a bit more, and ill be sure to update the post if I do. I really do like it so far. JPC 2.0 http://i.imgur.com/bRI5KP7.jpg http://i.imgur.com/7LIlO8o.jpg http://i.imgur.com/pGIp7i6.jpg SKD PIG http://i.imgur.com/VfLtRiA.jpg View Quote |

View Quote I've got 2 with and 2 without for different situations since the harness isn't a quick take off. One of each is 556 and one of each 762. Like you, I've tried a number of different carriers until i landed on the AVS. Clearly the harness ads bulk but more comfortable with extended use and added weight carriage. Had to try 2 harness sizes before I landed on the Medium instead of the large to get the bulk down to an acceptable comfort to bulk ratio. The meduim harness arms are about 2" from touching without side plates and 5" with side plates. Still plenty stable. The large arms overlapped with and without side plates which was bad. Wide chest and thin waist meant mix and match bag and harness sizes. |

I have a BFG chest rig setup like that, and I used to think lower is better. Then I started doing a lot more positional shooting, and found it was very uncomfortable if my knees ever went above parallel with the ground. Pinches my belly, and hits stuff on my belt. I keep it high now.

It was high enough to not get snagged as I negotiated obstacles & went prone but it was still low enough to access quickly. The above pics were just after I got it. After getting use to it I'm sure it will get adjusted a bit lower. |

I've taken a class with it down on my belly shooting from unconventional positions and it didn't bother me too much but could just be my body type.
None of these set ups have more than 6-8 hours of training time on them so always adjusting but across a handful of chest rigs I've found I like them a bit lower. The photo above the bottom of my rib cage is about where the Ranger tabs on the mags are. Definitely on upper abs vs lower belly. I thought about wearing it higher and getting a IIIA panel to stick in the map pocket in back too. My PC I do wear up higher typically in conjunction with a war belt with holster. Chest rigs I usually just have the rig with a belt (my CCW belt) attached OWB pistol holster and a small backpack. |
