Templar's Gear CPC-ROC gen. 3 is awesome! Ain't cheap, but modular, elastic waist band, cordura 500D, laser cut and you can remove the quick release on the shoulder (left and/or right) for easier shouldering your buttstock.
@@Neboekadnezar 10min ago i got the Templars Gear Crusader Plate Carrier CPC ROC, its almost the same like the CPC-ROC gen. 3 but i dont think i can remove the things so i got the wrong model :) Anyways thank you so much for testing that out :) Probably will get the Templar's Gear CPC-ROC gen. 3, the only thing is that my agilite k19 gen2 is a lot more comfortable, but it the cummerband is pretty bad and shouldering a rifle can be tough, on the Templars Gear you got more space in your shoulder area! Thanks mate :)
@@MiIitaryEdits At first, I thought it was non-removable too, but it came out after some fiddling. Check the picture in the link, the marked areas show how these closures slide/fit in the carrier. Hope this makes sense and works with yours as well 🤞drive.google.com/file/d/1W-_DORQVy22N601hpquzGHmqeuZi79wm/view?usp=sharing
@@Neboekadnezar Damn bro thanks so much :) Ineed you can change the buckles at the front! But i watched a youtube video and you cant change the fast release at the shoulder on my model, so probably im going to return it and may change to the CPC-ROC gen. 3. Anyways thank you for your comment and your time, i appreciate it!
Had a guy in my battalion that fell into a well in Afghanistan and went straight down. The quick release for his carrier allowed him to dump it and get to the surface under stress at night. It's a worthwhile addition to any carrier.
Defense Mechanisms MEPC would be an excellent fit for you (make sure to get the molle rear plate bag), especially with the hybrid cummerbund. I would also recommend you to get Qore Performance Icevent shoulder pads, they are great for creating some space between your body and the plate carrier.
I love mine. I mean, anything is better than usmc carriers, but the MEPC is just badass. It’s normally more of a slick minimalist carrier but it’s also very scalable. But you have to buy the shoulder sleeves with it or the straps will rub your neck
Good stuff! Pay attention to the key points he's talking about folks, there are a lot of great systems out there but it's nearly inevitable some augmentation/ customization will need to be undertaken to cater a rig to the individual. I've done multiple modifications to various systems over the years out of necessity, so that's something to always be cognizant of. For brand semantics, one of my favorite manufacturers is Shellback Tactical, their old and new PC's are quality and fit great. LBT of course makes great systems too but they're generally a little more costly. I've also got a 5.11 TacTec PC but have had to make several major changes to it due to not wanting the quick-release pull cord system. The alternative is to run a slick/ low-profile Vest and a Chest Rig or LBE or Battle Jacket over it, those work great as well and have just as many if not more modular options than a PC.
It also depends on how much Žiga is ready to spend. Sure, if money is no option you can get a custom-made plate-carrier that will fit your body and your body alone! Think of it this way. A plate carrier is essentially fabric, just like a suit or tuxedo: - Can a large percentage of the population go to a store and get a tuxedo that will fit them OK? Yeah. - Would an off the rack suit ever fit you as well as a tuxedo that was tailormade for your body? Of course not. The same idea can be applied for plate carriers that are either One Size Fits All (hint: if it fits all, it fits no one), or come in some non-standardized sizing protocol (like Small-Medium; Large; XL-XXXL) that doesn't carry over between brands and sometimes not even within different product lines within the same brand (I'm looking at you Crye!) Since Žiga already knows Husar, he should try getting some time with their Kirys model if lightweight is something very high on the list of priorities. I have some friends wearing agilite gear and swear by it, while personally I love my Ferro Concepts Slickster (bonus tip: get it in that Black Multicam for the much sought-after drip!).
Templars Gear Crusader or Direct Action Spitfire. I'm using both of them, they're really lightweight and durable with minimalist design. I'm highly recommend both manufacturers, they make good quality products. PROUDLY MADE IN POLAND! 💪🏻
Try Whiskey Two Four's plate carrier 24. Simple. Very well thought design. No bullshit. Well built. Affordable. But... if you want the Formula One of plate carriers you may go for Javlin Concept's A-Jack. Knock yourself out.
Personally I use a Cry JPC 1. Lighter than my issued boots and fully custom with no quick release without modification. Also K19 have a very good reputation.
So many low grade recommendations in here... on a big budget - SHAW Concepts ARC PC is a beauty, FS strandhogg similar. Other quality ones that have velcro inside to facilitate the padding and tick a lot of your other boxes include the Raine Tac RTG PC and PC 24 from Whiskey Two Four. All great quality and super well designed.
I'd recommend Ars Arma A-20 Beskar. It's a light-weight carrier built out of 500D Cordura and laminates, slim enough that it can be worn covertly if you remove front placard and shoulder pads. It has laser-cut molle-minus attachment grids on platebags and placard, and you can choose between 3-row skeletal or 5-row molle-minus cummerbund with or without Tubes QD locks. It's also Veltex-lined on the inside to accept all kinds of internal padding and has vented mesh in the middle of platebags for use without pads. Ars Arma also makes full-plate and multi-piece hex-grid padding that vents very nicely. The only problem is that it's made in Russia, so there's 6-9 weeks backlog right now for active duty orders and the rest of us get to wait at the rear of the queue. OTOH, they seem to still have Beskar in stock, as if nobody's buying a semi-slick low-profile plate carrier to go to war in. And with sanctions in place, shipping would be a bitch.
If you´ll use it for hikeing than maybe the "Plattenträger MGS" from MD-Textil is something for you. It´s lightweight, modular, and if you need to you can implement a rappeling harness into the PC, kinda nice to have in the mountains (or if you want to fastrappeling from a chopper or builing xD)
Currently have the Agilite K19 Gen2, its really good and comfortable, but one can have problems shouldering the rifle because of the shoulder pads/quick release. They made a gen3; there you can change the shoulder buckles. Also the cummerbund has only 3 MOLLE slots so be aware of that. Other than that its a great plate carrier. I may be changing to a Templar's Gear CPC-ROC, because of the bad cummerband of the agilite, lets see!
@@coolT21323 yeah, thanks for the heads up! Lets see, i would like to keep the quick release tho; with the gen3 i think you are supposed to velcro the cummerbund at the front without a quick release
My dude, I used to run a Vector Scarab carrier working armored car. The shoulders both made that obnoxious noise all day every day for 12-15 hours a day while I worked. I finally got pissed enough to throw that carrier off and dare people to try shit with me. Then I got a ferro concepts carrier, their overt one. I like it. Been using it for 3 years now, and it's very comfortable. I'm currently looking for a qd cummerbund for it, and a different placard but the rest is great.
@@rastavelli The K5 doesnt have the shortcomings of the K19, but it is still a full size carrier so the shoulder straps still get in the way of shouldering. The only way of fixing that is to have of of those really high speed carriers with flat straps that you cant put a lot of weight on and that doesnt work for a lot of people. But as far as comfort, breathability and weight distribution its great.
For the features that Žiga seems to value (Fit, Comfort, Doesn't impede movement/cause noise) I would try looking at plate carriers made by London Bridge Trading. They seem to consistently show up when the question is asked about the most comfortable plate carrier, and their plate carriers seem to have good wide shoulder straps, a mesh cummerbund with elastic straps, and integrated padding in the plate pocket for extra comfort. They also have a sister company LBX that makes the same equipment in Brazil if you don't want to pay the LBT premium price.
Comment section folks writing books. London Bridge Trading Company and Varusteleka haven't ever made me custom gear but it always seems to fit and work for me.
Finn-Savotta is supposedly designing something new for the Finnish Defense Forces. The new model is supposedly be more of a plate carrier design. Their combat vest at least was superb.
Defense Mechanism's MEPC might do the trick. They are light, modular, and have a solid elastic cummerbund option. Shoulder straps are probably lacking given your parameters. Mine fits great and it's super comfy
Crye SPC. I have an AVS but everyone I know who has the SPC love it and say it’s got the best features of the jpc and avs combined. Plus it’s affordable. I’d say AVS but a lot of it’s features are unnecessary and I only have it cuz I think it’s cool tbh
A good option that’s easy to acquire in Europe would be the Warrior Assault systems DCS, LPC or RPC All three and elastic at the rear of the plate carrier, the DCS and RPC and 3D spacer mesh and the LPC has a thermo pad with air channels, all three have wide shoulders and are flat at the front I’ve only used the DCS in the past and my only real gripe about it was that you have to be pretty particular with donning it otherwise you’d get velcro hanging out the bottom but the other two I mentioned use tubes so it won’t be an issue
Agilite K19 (gen3). Padded straps, elastic parts in cummerbund, tube-connectors can be removed to ensure proper stock weld, enough padding behind the plates, easy mounting for backpack etc.
What about a ‘cheap’ or affordable plate carrier?? So I work 40 hrs a week as an overnight cashier at a Circle K gas station in Arizona an have a 9 yr old and also a wife so I live paycheck to paycheck, so affordable to me may be a little different then others but something I may have to save up a little bit for but also something that I don’t have to save for 9-12 months for you know haha so maybe anything that is max a couple hundred dollars but even that’s pushing it in price. I know that’s specific parameters but any suggestions? Thanks 🙏
I own a Ferro Concepts Slickster and a Defense Mechanisms Mission Essential Plate Carrier. Both are very similar and serve me well. I've been eyeing the new Haley Strategic Thorax.
Talk to Matt over at Demolition Ranch. he did a recent review on some sweet plate carriers and armour plate bought straight from China via Alibaba. Sweet kit! Not cheap - several dollars apiece.
Miwo Military Praszka in Poland does some outstanding quality products for a reasonable price, I wholeheartedly recommend them. There's a pretty long queue due to invasion of Ukraine tho
100%, waiting for my order to be processed currently. Miwo Lubliniec has some nice stuff too. I always get their UBER vest, probably the best I've ever worn and it outperforms the USMC issue vests by a long shot. I will be getting a coyote brown version sent to me from my family in Poland so I can use it instead of my issued one. This will be my second UBER now, will probably get more in the future.
Spiritus systems??? Simple but durable shoulder straps And thicker patting can be added. Tube quick release system on the cumberbomb Is optional and some might not like that you have to buy all the individual parts, it alows you to build it the you want and for your needs.
Comfort is a major factor. The cummerbund should help support the weight of the carrier. It transfers weight ro the hips, which helps with the fatigue factor
Crye Precision JPC 2.0 meets all the criteria, I believe. Would need to add additional padding under the shoulder straps, potentially. Otherwise, GTG right out of the box.
I used a cheap condor in 2011 for my deployment in afghanistan. It had everything I needed and was acceptable for the U.S. Army. Though now I rock a spartan armor carrier, forget the name of it.
@@the_manderson_4812 he would? What makes you think he wouldn’t be able to? Do you doubt his manliness to be able to handle being squished between 2 low explosives? 🤔😤
I've been wearing an old perroz designs lpsc I've modified for the past two years its my favorite carrier of all time having used most all of the big brands. It isn't a full featured heavy plate carrier however, and it wont bear like massive weight. if you're using something slick id go perroz, if you need something to carry allot check out Shaw Concepts.
Been rocking the Spiritus Systems Lv119 for a while now and i gotta say its pretty cool Got a elastic cummerbund with lots of storage for mags, radio etc and the overall modularity is awesome Though after a few hours it gets a little rough on the shoulders without some extra padding
I don't know if you can get this in your country but, I would check out defense mechanisms their stuff is made to order but you can get a ton of options. Just check to see if it will ship and is not ITAR restricted.
I know this is old but have you tried Direct Action Gear? I love their spitfire plate carrier, it has the zippers for a Crye pattern pack and it’s really well made.
Obviously TUR Gear plate carriers are the best, especially ones with cobra buckles for shoulder strap release and inner velcro-attached pads with D30 filler, unfortunately you won't be able to get your hands on it for a while. First Spear Assaulters Plate Carrier is really nice too, but it really lacks soft shoulder pads from the beginning and I would prefer inner side of each panel to be covered in soft velcro (like the one they use on their cummerbund)
@@rastavelli obviously you didn’t know there was a gen 3. I don’t have it cause I just ordered one since last week is when they released the video of the new gen. From the looks of it, they listened to customer feed back. I have ran a 5.11, banshee 3.0, and jpc. No bias but go ahead and make your assumptions.
@@rastavelli sounds like you had a bad experience with Agilite and now you go around hating. You can literally check the video they came out with and fixes all the problems you stated. I comprehend in multiple languages, but I’m done with this conversation
I love Husar. Their products are solid but their lead and dispatch time is atrocious. It is always plagued with delays and supply chain/stock issues. I'm currently running a FCPC v5. It's definitely a very expensive investment but Ferro's customer service and products is top notch.
We have the same experience, Husar products are top notch but the delays and poor business decisions moved us away from selling their products. Hopefully they have changed over the years because we would like to work with them in the future
I use a Spiritus Systems LV119 Pros great for shouldering rifles very minimalistic very light weight the shoulder straps are very low profile and have no issues the cummerbund is very rigid routes wires and hydro-tubes like a dream load bearing many color choices no intrusive features you never use absolutely no snag points cons expensive EVERYTHING SOLD SEPARATELY molle back panels are sold separately and are proprietary some people find adjusting the cummerbund to be annoying there is not much expansion for breathing (depending on how you set up the cummerbund)
Where are y'all buying your plate carriers? I bought mine from Spartan Armor Systems and it's a super basic Molle shooters cut vest with 11x14 front and rear plates as well as 6x8 side plates (which now with experience I should've got the 6x6 side plates)

@@the_manderson_4812 he would? What makes you think he wouldn’t be able to? Do you doubt his manliness to be able to handle being squished between 2 low explosives? 🤔😤
@@froheschwanz fair point
I've been wearing an old perroz designs lpsc I've modified for the past two years its my favorite carrier of all time having used most all of the big brands. It isn't a full featured heavy plate carrier however, and it wont bear like massive weight. if you're using something slick id go perroz, if you need something to carry allot check out Shaw Concepts.
Very nice, solid and well-equipped plate carrier, very good choice :) Btw i think that Templar Gear plater carriers are still the best ;)
I know I should really get a plate carrier... I hope there will be a follow-up with a good answer to your question.
Been rocking the Spiritus Systems Lv119 for a while now and i gotta say its pretty cool
Got a elastic cummerbund with lots of storage for mags, radio etc and the overall modularity is awesome
Though after a few hours it gets a little rough on the shoulders without some extra padding
Sentinel 2.0 from Combat Systems or CGPC3 from Custom Gear.
I don't know if you can get this in your country but, I would check out defense mechanisms their stuff is made to order but you can get a ton of options. Just check to see if it will ship and is not ITAR restricted.
I know this is old but have you tried Direct Action Gear? I love their spitfire plate carrier, it has the zippers for a Crye pattern pack and it’s really well made.
The best one is the „mehler vario system s1“ trust me
Agilite K19…..best one ive ever put on
I'm running Direct action spitfire MK2 atm only down side is the availability. But its combadible with other brands
Try looking into mos tactical you can customize your plate carrier in depth
Obviously TUR Gear plate carriers are the best, especially ones with cobra buckles for shoulder strap release and inner velcro-attached pads with D30 filler, unfortunately you won't be able to get your hands on it for a while. First Spear Assaulters Plate Carrier is really nice too, but it really lacks soft shoulder pads from the beginning and I would prefer inner side of each panel to be covered in soft velcro (like the one they use on their cummerbund)
MEPC for the win. Second to that is the k19, but ive never used one and am not sure how well it does with shouldering a rifle
Agilite K19 solves most of your problems. Great plate carrier and well tested. Make sure to get a Gen 3 cause it’s very adaptable
@@rastavelli obviously you didn’t know there was a gen 3. I don’t have it cause I just ordered one since last week is when they released the video of the new gen. From the looks of it, they listened to customer feed back. I have ran a 5.11, banshee 3.0, and jpc. No bias but go ahead and make your assumptions.
@@rastavelli sounds like you had a bad experience with Agilite and now you go around hating. You can literally check the video they came out with and fixes all the problems you stated. I comprehend in multiple languages, but I’m done with this conversation
Get some mark IV armor with magnetic mag pouches. If it works for the Spartans, it'll work for you
Heads up...Haley Strategic has 30% off til 6/19/22.
Hailey strategic makes a great option
Also the most expensive ones :D
@@PolenarTactical true but you buy the plate sold bags separately now...
I love Husar. Their products are solid but their lead and dispatch time is atrocious. It is always plagued with delays and supply chain/stock issues. I'm currently running a FCPC v5. It's definitely a very expensive investment but Ferro's customer service and products is top notch.
We have the same experience, Husar products are top notch but the delays and poor business decisions moved us away from selling their products. Hopefully they have changed over the years because we would like to work with them in the future
I use a Spiritus Systems LV119
Pros
great for shouldering rifles
very minimalistic
very light weight
the shoulder straps are very low profile and have no issues
the cummerbund is very rigid
routes wires and hydro-tubes like a dream
load bearing
many color choices
no intrusive features you never use
absolutely no snag points
cons
expensive
EVERYTHING SOLD SEPARATELY
molle back panels are sold separately and are proprietary
some people find adjusting the cummerbund to be annoying
there is not much expansion for breathing (depending on how you set up the cummerbund)
DANG ! Should have put in the squeaky noise as he walked away
Damn! That was a missed opportunity :D
Where are y'all buying your plate carriers? I bought mine from Spartan Armor Systems and it's a super basic Molle shooters cut vest with 11x14 front and rear plates as well as 6x8 side plates (which now with experience I should've got the 6x6 side plates)
Wait the SOP t-shirt you are wearing is quite nice, where did you bought that from?
WaifuDynamics
@@SoppoMod Find it, thanks!
Check out Defense Mechanisms MEPC.

Thank you, I thought my plate carrier was choking me, it turns out I need those things.
Go loom at the agilite k19 one of the best i have seen and have worn
Nice sopmod T-shirt
Sioen tacticum in Finland. Ask if they can made it?
Beez combat can custom make and plate carrier for exactly what you want.
Mine is the AWS OCPC
You may be interested in a new product from Templars Gear: 4th Generation TG-TPC.
What's the best plate carrier? Just like the best carry gun. The one you are wearing.
Maybe the Tasmanian Tiger MKIV would be a fit for you.
Uarm is a good company. I love mine😊
I love my Tasmanian Tiger MK IV
Maybe take a Look at PCs from Zentauron. I like them a Lot.
Hands down. Velocity Systems scarab
