Mayflower Research and Consulting Assault Plate Carrier (Color: Coyote Brown / Large-X-Large / Medium Cummerbund)

"Absolutely great for real steal and LARPing. I’ve had mine a few years now and it’s held up wonderfully. My one and only complaint is the shoulder straps sure like to dig. Some first spear shoulder pads fix the problem.

"great color. perfect for a small person or someone that likes a small vest. light and breathable.

"I am 5'6 an 130 pounds this fits perfect. I purchased emg dummy plates 2 9x12 an 2 6x6. The front an back dummy plates fit no problem with room to spare, you could get away with large 10x12 if you had to or wanted to. The side plates however come right to the top of the cummerbund, an do not allow you to close it. If you plan on using in conjunction with the Haley Strategic chest rig like me, you will have to purchase swift clips separately. Which at this time Evike does not carry.

"10/10 solid PC. I am 190lbs 5'9 male and it fits perfect with some room to spare. Combine this with the Haley Strategic D3CR and flat pack and that's all all you will need. Goes well with the EMG foam sapi plates. No cons in my book. If you're thinking about buying a Mayflower PC, do it. You wont regret it.

"I got this plate carrier a few weeks ago and was very happy with what I got. The package was in tac and plate carrier was very well built by Velocity Systems. Although it is expensive its worth it.

Pros
Well built 500D Courdera
Real steel (Some military operators use these)
Overall great fit, size, and build

Cons
I wish it came with 5.56 insert
Some replica plates may not fit

* I have the PTS medium plates and they are a little small which means some material at the bottom may hang off a little. No biggie

"Had this carrier for almost 3 years now. Nothing but absolute praise to Mayflower. Amazing design, high strength construction that has never failed, extremely easy to adjust to different sizes, with the swift clip system it also sports a wide array of modularity for different mission sets. I've ran the DC3R from HSP on it since I got the carrier and I couldn't ask for a better set up. Plenty of molle surface for mounting different pouches if a static set up is your way. Built in admin pouch makes storage of mission essential equipment such as maps, 9-line medevac cards, UXO cards, etc... all the way up to spare medical equipment. It fits extremely tight to the body, doesn't shift on you when you're running, covers all the vital organs and it is sized for your ballistic plate size. I've tested this in some pretty extreme and austere environments and it has never failed and is always something I could rely on and know without a shadow of a doubt that I had one of the greatest plate carriers ever made. I prefer this over the army issued KDH SPCS, LBT systems, any Eagle Industries or Crye carriers. Honestly the only ones that even come close are the JPC or the banshee but this tops those systems in its sleep. You will not regret your purchase

"-Looks great
