I am checking into plate carriers. I am looking at getting one with a cummerbund, so you can attach more crap to it.
Yes, I know you get what you pay for. I also know that you do not have to spend top dollar to get decent gear. I am not some sort of operator for a living, but I want to have the gear. I am finding there are some modular (plate carriers compatible with cummerbunds starting around $60 and going up to $300. I am wanting to stay closer to the low 100s if possible and definitely do not want to go above $200. There are not a ton of carriers between $100 and $200 that I have seen. What do you suggest?
I have looked at the following:
Condor MOPC
Viper MOPC
And the AR500 line of plate carriers
Is there another that I should look at?
I have some Condor gear and it is decent. I know it is not as good as London Bridge or SOE. I also know a mag pouch does not need to hold 18 pounds of weight, but a plate carrier will need to hold that plus any add on gear.
Thanks!
