What plate carrier/rig do you use?

RiteOff · April 11th, 2008, 13:54

Not sure if this thread was already started or not but i figured id ask as im on the hunt for a new rig.

Im selling my Ciras maritime in favour of something a bit lighter and more mag capabilities. Ive had my eye on a Wasatch by HSGI but recently found a rig called the callahan/hellcat that seems to be the best of both worlds. So, on that note, post up what you use and why, pics would be great too

Thanks
Dave

I have this (in khaki) and love it! Not only is it light and easy to set up, it's made by Eagle and very nicely priced.

I also ditched a ciras for something lighter and am currently using a wasatch. I really like it. I'll take some pics when I get home

i love the ciras land for all the room, but now im useing an eagle pc to be a little more streamline, im thinking about getting huangs gunvest clone though

With Wasatch and Weesatch, I really recommend trying one before buying (with mags involved). The integrated mag pouches aren't for everyone, as they play a big part on the fit of the rig.

Wasatch in OD.

The Saint · April 11th, 2008, 15:37

Weesatch, actually. Pantac/Phantom copied the Weesatch and mislabelled it as the Wasatch.

I got a HSGI Wasatch. It's a nice rig if you wearing it over armour. If you use it by itself, buy some replica plates or you'll find it a little sloppy.

Get the Tomcat version of the Callahan. Very nice kit.

I'm using the Eagle RRS-V Rhodesian Recon vest right now. I kind of like to wear or follow what the real SOF uses.

-Point Blank EOTV in CB
-British Army Osprey MK2
-SAAV M83 Assault vest (the issued not the chinese crap)
-Arktis 40Commando chestrig
-Australian army DPCU belt kit

On really really hot day where shades can't be found I really like webbing and smaller rigs like Arktis whereas big bulky vest will only get me heat stroke.

Cheap little china made rig. Holds 8 M14 mags and a radio and I clip a dump pouch on the side.

I hold another 5 mags in my pants and switch out when I get a chance.

Simple and it works, less then 60$ spent.

Eagle Multicam Platecarrier with wrap-around Cumberbund... Envy me
