So I have a chance to get a pair of ceramic plates. I have been looking at the different options for plate carriers and I am like .

I need some ideas as to what is the best setup to use. I have a Blackhawk tac vest that I really like. It is very comfortable over my level IIIa soft armor, but neither has rifle plate pockets.

Should I get a concealable type plate carrier that I can wear under my tac vest? I have also seen some that will accept my soft armor and plates.

Should I get a molle plate carrier and add mag pouches, etc. and forget the tac vest.

Plate carrier with soft armor? With cumber bun?

What's the best setup for protection without being to heavy, bulky or hot?

You might get better answers here.

I would get a MOLLE plate carrier.



Tactical vests are OK but MOLLE gear is customizable.
