| Been reading all I can find on the subject. First I'm on a budget 200 pretty much my limit. Not going to be a everyday wear but I want something dependable. I see the Banshee are in my budget and are made of 500D but I also have found Condor one made in the U.S. one from China but both are 1000D. The higher end Condor are from 125 to 165. To me it would seem I should go with the Condor since it seems to be heavier made. But I dont know too much about the deal,any input GREATLY APPRECIATED! |
| My experience with Condor hasn't been that great. They are ok for "replaceable" stuff like mag pouches and such, but for a plate carrier definitely go with the TAG Banshee (I love my Banshee, has held up MUCH longer with more abuse than my condor plate carrier). |

Banshee.
If you can live with coyote brown, you can get one here for $106. Or black for $125. http://www.yourplacefortactical.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=Banshee&Submit= |
| Thanks guys,that is the kind of feedback I was looking for. It would be nice to get the multicam but I would rather have quality over color. Do the Banshee fit like the Condor adjustable from Med - XL? Im 5'8 180.One last question will the Banshee hold trama pads with the plate (as in,enough room for both)if I decided to buy some,down the line? |

I just got one of these Crye Airlight carriers. I have poly plates in it and its a super light setup:
https://cryeprecision.com/ProductDetail/altek202lg0_airlite-plate-carrier-ek02 It is within your budget and is multicam. FYI, When you size a plate carrier you buy the size that matches the plates and not your body. They typically have enough adjustment to suit most people. |

How does the Banshee carrier compare to Highcom's APC or ACAP?

In looking more at the Banshee PC I came across the Warrior DCS PC. And it has the 3d mesh inside where the Banshee dosent. The warrior has a few upgrades over the Banshee for the same price. Anyone have experience with the Warrior? Warrior has very high quality buy it! I own the DCS and recon as all my pouches are warrior as well. The banshee is a high quality stripped down PC whereas the warrior is high quality loaded PC for a similar price. Buy it you will not be sorry. |

I like the quality and overall feel of it. Just need to get the plates and pouches for it now. |
