    Plate carriers

    Can anyone recommend me a good plate carrier with some level 4 armor? Lots of choices out there and curious to see what Calgunners are using and what their setups look like. Post pics if you can.

              Check out the mayflower APC

              This is the same setup I use and the Maflower is a top notch carrier.

                I am personally not sold on AR500 armor. I'd recommend ceramic. Also why LVL 4? I'd rather have LVL 3 personally. The PC's I've been keeping an eye on are the Shellback Banshee, Warrior DCS, and the Mayflower APC. I just ordered the Shellback. My only experience is with the IOTV, I think I am the only person left I think who actually likes it, it is just large.

                The "Truth About Body Armor" thread here on Calguns is great.

                  I like this setup. What size plates are you using to fit into that carrier?

                      The 10"x12" ceramic in the shooters cut. They fit perfectly.

                        Any shops around LA with good prices?


                        Why are most of the ones on here not covering the lower abdomen ?

                        Anyone know what brand 50 Cent wore?

                            Are there any all-inclusive packages? Carrier + Plates, just Level 2 or 2A - I don't need anything too special, just something that looks good in a music video
