I saw the vid Nutnfancy did on those...so light! I can't imagine carrying the kind of weight B2M is talking about.

No kidding? I def would've thought the soft kevlar would've been lighter. You planning on any sort of padding between you and the plate?

Yea, you will see the nutnfancy discount in text on that page. Ordered a plate carrier earlier this week, may order a separate one for AR500 plates in the future.

Honestly forgot the name, waiting on the confirmation email from S.O. Tech, they had a code through Jerking the Trigger for a $315 carrier for $99. shite sold out instantly.

I have one similar to this and its OD green, except its blackhawk or specops brand, can't remember which.

Would that be compatible with a red dot?
Posted on 3/21/13 at 1:27 pm to Drew Orleans
Yes, I believe do. Says something about aligning with red dots in the description.

But the down point is if you don't want it magnified it has to be completely taken off, not adjust to get out of the way.

There are mounts that swing to the side I think, I am not the guy to ask about them though, I am not a fan of magnifiers.

Theres an option for the swing-away/flip to side mount on the drop down.

the whole rig, which was just the carrier, front and back plates, was about 33-35lb, and adding the side plates which I think are about 5-7lbs your already about 40lbs without other gear like med pouch, ammo, radio, rifle etc. I think the whole rig topped out at about 65-70lbs
Which rig were you running? The Interceptor or the newer rig? That Interceptor is heavy as shite without the damn plates, but the newer version is a hell of a lot lighter.

I wore both, and the newer rig is/was an awful lot lighter, but still 50-60lbs with all the gear.

I've got the Interceptor and was amazed at the difference when one of our new guys showed up with the newer ones. When I was enlisted I had the gear vest on top of the Interceptor, that shite wasn't fun at all.
Posted on 3/21/13 at 2:11 pm to hashbrowns
Yeah thats I what I had, a tac vest that fit over the interceptor.

My RRA BCG is waiting for me at my door when I get home 
Posted on 3/21/13 at 2:14 pm to brass2mouth
Hated that shite. I'd love to have a Rogue Gunfighter vest, there's just a bunch more shite on my wishlist before I start buying armor.
Posted on 3/21/13 at 2:28 pm to TigerTatorTots
I almost ordered one today for my 18" Daniel, I will in the next week or so if Bravo Company doesn't start offering up theirs again. Thats the M16 bcg, correct?
