Eagle Industries Plate Carrier with Cummerbund

Farmboy · April 19th, 2006, 17:23

The fit is very adjustable. No problem for most sizes.

My buddy Reaper has the first one in Canada.

The picture of it is on my site as well, in the Gallery.

Has anyone tried using the paracelte foam shoulder pads with the EI PC W/ CB?

Theres nothing stopping anyone from trying but. Eagle does make specific pads for the PC even though its really tight and hard to channel any wiring or hydration tubes through it.

I think i will just stick with HSGI shoulder pad

Sorry to dig this one up but can anyone explain the differences between the Eagle CIRAS (land) and the Plate Carrier w/ cummerbund (PC-W/C)?

I notice that the top of the chest area is a little lower and the back seems a little lower as well on the PC-W/C, but there's a HUGE pirce difference. Is the CIRAS really worth the extra $ over the PC-W/C?

Thanks,

Marco P.

The CIRAS is releasable. You pull a cord and it falls apart

The plate carrier does not do this.

INCURSORI · June 9th, 2006, 14:49

Is that pretty much the only difference? (other than the shoulder pads needed on the PC-W/C)

lt_poncho · June 10th, 2006, 11:49

No, about $350 USD's different...

The ciras will take most types of soft armour, as well as hard armour plates. The Plate carrier wont take standard soft armour. Also, the Ciras is a full vest with more real estate for pouches then the plate carrier.

Simply put, the CIRAS is a releasable armour carrier, and the plate carrier is just, well, a plate carrier.

Just a question. What is the two loops on the inside upper back part of the vest used for??

Thanks guys

Actually, only a $100USD ($399 for PC w/ CB in non-releasable flavour, $499 for the CIRAS).

I'm looking forward to handling both soon. I just don't feel comfortable with the entire set-up revolving around a piece of cord to hold it together (even if it's 550 para

).
