Second Line Kit Gallery - Chestrig/Armor/Webbing, etc

[Wilkie]

Turns out I missed the boat on a Crye JPC order, so I'm not sure if I'm going to get in on the next one, or go to something that doesn't require a minimum 5 months wait.

What would other people recomend in something similar, low profile, multicam carrier. Preferably a "real" piece of kit rather than something designed for airsoft

Edit: never mind, I decided to take the less lazy route and just look through the thread again.

Seeing as there's a Mandrake setup in the thread, here's one in Highlander to complement it.

Light, streamlined, highly versatile HSGI based kit, chest rig also integrates with the pack. Put it together with the intention of running various guns with different mags; it's still missing a couple of pieces (need to integrate comms) but I'm happy with it for now.

Setup for the 105

By the way Wilkie, the Mayflower APC is a nice, small, light plate carrier that has a ton of options to go with it in the way of conversions and addons. It is about the same price, actually a tad cheaper, as the JPC.

I use the APC and whether you are running light or with a full load it fits very nicely and is very comfortable. Doesn't sag to the front or back if the weight isn't balanced. I have added some home made plates for added rigidity.

DS Tactical in BC sells them in most colours and patterns you can think of as being "modern, in use in the wild", including all of the different Kryptek patterns if that floats your boat. Can have it shipped with FedEx to your door for under $300 if I'm not mistaken.

That does look nice. I was actually looking at a Ferro Concepts rig, but the mayflower is cheaper. I'll see where I'm at come payday

Anyone happen to know if there's a wait on Ferrp gear, like there is on Crye?

[Stealth]

Depends on the item.
I've bought from both without delays.

Nice setup Beta678. You think installing radio pouch in back? Not sure if I like it in front.

[Wilkie]

Great, thanks. Think ill actually go the mayflower APC rough. Was eying up the FCPC for its mod-ability, but it looks like the former has everything Im looking for anyway

[Spike]

Have you looked at the Banshee?

[Wilkie]

Ah yes I have. Looks good as well. At this point though I'm also looking at a couple Arc'teryx goodies, which are carried by this DS tactical Zack posted. They carry the Mayflower rigs, so at this point I'm leaning in that direction.

@Wilkie, have you taken a look at BCS plate carriers? Not to everyone's taste but they've got some interesting low profile stuff, relatively well priced as well.

Yeah, I'm thinking about putting it in that somewhat empty space between the holster and dump pouch on my belt.

I might shift things around a bit to make a bit more room when I go ahead with it, but I haven't had a need for a radio yet so it might be a while before I do it. Might mount it one row lower so it hangs off the belt a bit just to tuck right into that spot.

[Wilkie]

No that ones new to me. There's certainly no shortage of carriers out there lol lots to choose from

[fuhrmanz]

Wilkie, my chest rig is a BCS. Calculate a good 6 -8 weeks since they're making them on request. Well built.. can't complain so far.
