Just do it. Other than the wait time there are no negatives about these plates. I also feel like ordering a second set, but can’t do that money-wise right now.

We're hoping lead times get cut down here shortly. We've put the hammer down on the material supplier and they've gotten into gear. Quote HistoryQuoted:

VelSys told me its only up to 1" thick plates that fit into the carrier or else I have to go a size larger in carrier. :/

Hrmm - any reason why these wouldn't fit in a JPC 1.0? I thought both the 1.0 and 2.0 had the stretchy material...

The 2.0 has more stretch than the 1.0. I also talk to Crye and for a plate this thick they said the would recommend the 2.0 of go up a carrier size. |

I should be getting mine in the next 2 weeks, or so. The 7th will be week 8. I don’t mind the wait, as I still haven’t ordered my carrier yet.

have you guys considered an all ceramic or a mostly ceramic/UHMWPE hybrid in order to get thinner plates?
