Just got this in today. Took a bit over a week to get here. Build quality is solid. No loose stitching or frayed edges. ROC buckles hold fast and require some force to snap loose with the tether. Dual pockets for soft and hard armor. Padding is comfortable. Went for a half mile run and the padding made it very comfortable. My Tactical Scorpion Gear medium SAPIs (9.5"x12.5"x1") fit snug enough with no movement while running, but would fit better with soft armor as well. Cummerbund has pockets for soft armor inserts. No accommodations for hard side plates.

Pic dump inbound.

What's up with the rubber glove hanging in your shower? Maybe I don't want to know.

Nice looking. I'm not a fan of QR shoulders though - they absolutely jack up stock mounting *for me*. I cut mine off and replaced with 550 loops, covered with heat shrink tubing (to prevent nylon on nylon friction). Someone will have a knife.

That's the wife's scrubby exfoliating glove thing.

I've been considering something similar. My primary rifle has a very small footprint PDW stock that fits right in the opening between the QR and the clipped corner of the plate, but the QR definitely gets in the way of normal foot print stocks. I'm thinking I'd rather not have to work around a QD.

I added an Esstac Daeodon placard, and cut some slits in the shoulder pads so I could attach my shoulder plates to the carrier. I wish the straps on the placard were a bit longer to go to the bottom of the carrier so I could have a thin admin pouch or even my TQ above the mags. I think I'm going to try the Esstac Triple KYWIs on the molle panel the carrier came with as they should sit lower.

My original idea (which would have been awesome) was an ITW G-Hook...but they don't make them that wide. Etsy had some, but I wasn't thrilled with the possible quality. 550 with a Square Knot and two Half-Hitches saved the day.
