Can yall post pics and descriptions of these setups?

Two posts up says post gear porn here.

I'll throw my Pig brig up this afternoon.

My setup:
PIG Brig PC, Mk1 shoulder pads, MOLLE front panel (NIJ certified level IV ceramics)
Esstac M4 KYWI double pouch (Gen2 Pmags w/64gr Gold Dots)
HSGI Bleeder(Israeli bandage, shears, 2pr nitrile gloves, Halo chest seal, NPA w/lube, rolled gauze, 36" duct tape, Quikclot Sport, Sharpie [going to swap Izzy for Olaes, add Combat gauze, and drop QC sport and rolled gauze])
BFG TqNOW:  SOF-T Wide.



Cheap (relatively), durable, lightweight (as much as I can afford), elastic cumberbund doesn't interfere with my IWB G19.  No issues with my backpack.

Grab AR, PC goes over head and one arm, fasten other side when you have time, single AR mag on the belt or back pocket, and you're ready to roll.

Hi, what plates do you have?

They're rebranded Hesco plates.  NIJ-certified level IV ceramics, about 7.8lbs each (I haven't verified this).  I picked them up from AT Armor for $140 each.

Are those plates nij certified?

Yes, NIJ certified level IV and they also pass level III.

I guess mine counts as minimal, Tactical Tailor low vis mbav with level IV ceramics. I received it as a gift from my brother a few years back. The carrier is about 16-17 pounds with plates in and no soft armor, mags, medical, or radio in the cummerbund, so its not lightweight but even less so when fully loaded.

Crye and blue force make low profile carriers that are top notch construction.

I have one of these.  It's currently stripped down to just the PC, as I am waiting on a triple mag pouch for it.

GGG Minimalist

Yep. My BFG PLATEMinus V.1 weighs 13.5 lbs. loaded with plates and three AR mags. Very well-made PC.
