Contrary to belief SAPIs still need Level III protrection (PACA or backing panels). Even "stand alone" plates can have massice "back-face-deformation" after being hit.

just a plate carrier is fine (level 3 plates require soft armor but level 4 don't), Paca is good is your just running a chest rig.

I forgot to mention that the pc bears weight really well. When you wear it you feel almost no weight
Feb 23, 2009 6:16am
looks good, it's a lot of ammo to lug around. average CAG loadout is 4-7 mags.

Ya, the pouch on the back I use for nvgs.
Feb 23, 2009 6:18am
Blackhawk buckles :(
God save us everyone will be burning inside the fires of a thousand suns.
Feb 23, 2009 6:19am
I only have two blackhawk pouches and 1 is the hydration carier
Feb 23, 2009 6:24am
those 7B are pretty big, if they were 14s they could fit in one of the front pouches.

ya, I do need to find a diffrent location. Would a leg rig work?
Feb 23, 2009 6:30am
I was thinking about that but anything on the legs sucks. maybe hip it or figure out how to put it up front. but if a leg rig is the only way then i would run that instead of it on your back.
