ID these/this plate carrier please?

[AirsoftTed]

Hey guys,

Yet again I'm chaging around my loadout, hopefully this time for good.

Can any of you that are familiar with either Arma 2 or USMC FR (Don't know if the game's depiction is accurate) ID the plate carriers being worn here?

Sorry for the poor pictures, they're all I could find.

I think the two marines I'll be copying are wearing the same PC but I'm unsure:





Thanks in advance for any help lads.

Looks like a chest rig mroe than a plate carrier.

Warrior make dam good ones.

 

[adam bussey]

those are chest rigs

 

[TPI]

If you know they are chest rigs a name would be nice?

They remind me of the Warrior RICAS

looks very much like a 901

Thanks Lads, Haven't played the game in a while so couldn't tell.

Thanks for the Link M_P, for that price I'll definetly be picking up one in each colour :wub:

As someone who's never worn a chest rig, will I find it front heavy (sagging) due to the lack of a rear to weigh it down?

EDIT:

I'll get a back panel if that is the case, such a noob when it comes to chest rigs lol.

 

[M_P]

Yeah just get a back panel and a hydration carrier. Keeps you balanced and hydrated

May go with an assault pack, I seem to remember Coops running an ALICE belt with two ammo pouches and a canteen, I liked the look of that.

Anyone know if they come in CB and if not, is the contrast between CB and CT too much? I suspect once I get it all sufficiently muddied no one will be able to tell h34r:

If its for a force recon loadout for that time period you will want either an RRV (rhodesian recon vest) in Coyote brown, a land Ciras plate carrier or an eagle industries MBAV or MBSS

 

[AirsoftTed]

Cheers Mack, been looking at the RRV's and can't seem to see one with the buckles on the front. Do you think that was a fictional addition on Bohemia's part to make it look better, or is there a proper version I'm failing to find?

EDIT:

Just noticed the buckles are indeed on the RRV, just much higher up.

Going to try and get one for a reasonable price, if not I'm going to go for either the WAS 901 or one of the other alternatives you listed Mack

 

[Mack]

If you can pick up an RRV and the backplate from an MBSS you should be good to go. I know flyye do a version of both.

An OD 901 would be good as CT will be far too light in shade. If you're going for coops, he doesn't have a backplate but just a hydration carrier being worn as a backpack. He does have an alice belt rig with canteen and a sustainment pouch

Thanks for the help lads.

I'm going to be doing eightball, but with coop's ALICE belt set up.
