Unless I've come down with a case of the 'tard, I can't for the life of me find a 'Post pics of your plate carrier setup' thread...? I searched with all my team powers but couldn't find one?
If there is none, I will post mine up and start one- or does anyone know where it went? I coulda sworn I've seen one? ETA: Not talking about chest rigs, or 'gear' in general. I'm talking about strictly plate carriers. ETA2: One other person can't find one either; so that must mean this is none! THIS IS NOW A PLATE CARRIER THREAD! –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Please BE SURE to post specs if you join in! Including Plates inside! With chest rig attached: 
Chest rig detached: 
Velocity Systems LWPC in MC with two triple-curve plates by RMR tactical inside. Chest rig is clipped on using the Velocity Systems 'Swift Clip' Attachment system. Chest rig is a TT mini-mav with a triple mag shingle, and two modded Eagle FB pistol mag pouches on each side (modded to fit double stack glock mags). Pouch in front is a MSM Admin pouch. I LOVE this PC because I can not only have a chest rig attached, but also use it under clothing as a low-pro carrier. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Advance: @TCBA_Joe What are the parts highlighted in red?

My I have a Zipper admin pouch adapter on my other MMAC. That top U portion is just a cutout for the QR pull handle. Mine is on the left, but you can route it either side, or up top. I've velcroed a single button PTT in the center top cable pull cutout before. You can put velcro on the PTT box, slide it through the hole where the shoulder straps are, and it will stick to the inner velcro giving you an ambi button to activate. Its a PITA to pull out and reinstall it though if you're required to do water survival. |

Tried an LV119 today and just can't do it...too much pressure on my traps whereas my Warrior Assault Systems CPC feels great.
LV119 has ~6" of space between the two shoulder straps at their highest point. WAS CPC has ~8". On the lookout for a PC with at least 8" in this measurement. JPC looks like it's pretty wide...any others with widely-spaced shoulder straps? Plate bags would need to fit 10x12s. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Pontifex_Mortis: What is the consensus on Spriritus gear? Good to go? Quality is great. I found the shoulder straps to be a bit too close together on the 119 at only about a 6" gap. It works with the very low profile trifold covers, but if you try to run something a little more substantial and wide (e.g. HSGI shoulder pads) it doesn't leave a lot of room for your neck. YMMV based on build. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By AS556: Thanks Joe. I'll give the USGI insert a look. I have the gallon ziploc in there now and I think it will very likely suffice for my uses. Cheap and gets the job done. It's not a huge IFAK as it is so I'm really just running a Celox ribbon, Israeli dressing, H&H flat gauze, couple Hyfins and some PPE. The CAT is obviously on the PC elsewhere. I do need some good shears...any recommendation there? I've just been using whatever cheap ones Rescue Essentials has in my other kits. @AS556 Don't know if anyone ever answered the shears question, but Leatherman raptors are just about the best shears on the market. We use them on the medic and the engine for a reason. They are about the only shears that will easily cut turnout gear. They fold up to so the take up a minimum amount of real estate. |

I'm sure its been mentioned in this 145 page thread but the Shellback Tactical 3.0 Carrier has been a solid choice for my "heavy" loadout. Comes with the same Quick Release pull tabs and side armor capability as other brands noted above. Their Shoulder Straps have been fine at dealing with the weight distribution - I added a Defense Mechanisms 4 Mag Placard which are impressive IMO.
