          Any idea if this would be pistol rated or just for fragmentation devices?

                      For the Turnover 5.56 they (FERRO) list 7.62x39 and AK mags specifically... and same is on one pf the 5.56 front flaps with friction fit I have these two and they are nice

                      "Fits magazines for 5.56x45 / .223 / 7.62x39
                      When using AK magazines we recommend the use of PMAGs only for abrasion."

                        The Turnover™ is an elastic retention magazine pouch designed for the Slickster™ plate carrier platform. Although designed for The Slickster™, Turnovers™ can also be inserted into most kangaroo pouches. The elastic allows for a wide variety of items to fit securely. It has hook Velcro on the back and loop Velcro on t


                      The ADAPT KANGAROO Front Flap offers an extremely low profile option for adding any MOLLE compatible pouches to the Slickster. The G Hooks attach right to the vert

                          I recently received my surplus LE level III-A vest and I am very pleased. They spent a lot of time on the phone fitting me (have a flexible cloth tape measure) with the best vest for my concerns. They also sold me a few surplus panels on the cheep for testing. I’ll post photos later but my vest looks like it belonged to a desk jockey or just hung in a supply room. I do have a small trauma plate but could add rifle plates in a carrier over it.

                          I paid $250 for perfectly serviceable high quality second chance monarch vest. I also bought some of their sweat wicking undershirts which I highly recommend. I did about a 45 minute scooter ride with my 10-year-old on razor scooters with my IWB and armor but no sweat wicking undershirt and I won’t be doing that again LOL

                                Available right now just wished it was multicam or multicam black. But good for anyone who wants it now in those colors.

                                Just just tried all the way until process payment gtg.
