RonLancs Posted August 10, 2020 Posted August 10, 2020 Hi all, I’m in the market for a new plate carrier. Has anyone any experience with: https://www.military1st.co.uk/13463105-mil-tec-plate-carrier-vest-coyote.html?___store=default&refSrc=83156&nosto=productpage-nosto-1 Im a larger chap, unfortunately... (and no I don’t want a chest rig unless it conceals my new found moobs and love handles) I also don’t want to spend a fortune and can safely say I’ll be happy with a plate carrier for 60£ tops. I’ve worn osprey, virtus and ye they’re ok.. but it’s airsoft. Any input would be great. Or if you’ve got one similar to the above let me know and if I like I’ll buy. Ron
Lokai Posted August 10, 2020 Posted August 10, 2020 I can't comment on that exact model but ive got this : https://www.military1st.co.uk/10740001-mil-tec-m-release-molle-combat-vest-olive.html Im 18 stone, 6 foot, and it fits spot on for me. Decently adjustable too.
RonLancs Posted August 10, 2020 Author Posted August 10, 2020 Not a moob or belly in sight my good man! I’m assuming (the gods of airsoft will forsake me) That the one I put up should be ok.

EvilMonkee Posted August 19, 2020 Posted August 19, 2020 Cheap alternative to buying plates for a plate carrier and a damn sight lighter - cut an old Army issue roll mat to size - helps retain the shape and will cost you £15.
Moderators Tackle Posted August 19, 2020 Moderators Posted August 19, 2020 Mate used to stick old copies of fhm in his, did the job & gave him some "reading" material in the safezone ?
RonLancs Posted August 19, 2020 Author Posted August 19, 2020 Bought some plates for a 5er haha just hoping they fit
