Description
If you're a fast mover seeking an affordable, modern plate carrier, the 8Fields Tactical Recon Laser-Cut Buckle Up MOLLE Plate Carrier has your name on it! Styled after the popular JPC plate carrier design but styled up by 8Fields, this compact plate carrier offers laser-cut MOLLE loops across the front and rear plate bags, allowing extra pouches, back panels, hydration bladders and other MOLLE-compatible equipment to be fitted exactly where you need them.
The front plate bag features a pair of buckle-up clips, allowing placards and chest rigs from the 8Fields buckle-up range to be fitted and switched out in seconds. If you're the type to run several different platforms over the course of a skirmish, buckle-up saves you the hassle of switching MOLLE pouches and avoids the need to bring a rig for each platform. The included placard holds 3 AR-15 or AK magazines and includes laser-cut MOLLE loops on the front so you can stack additional pouches on top when the mission requires it.
On the front and rear, the Recon Plate Carrier features a Velcro ID panel, allowing you to add morale or ID patches to customise your rig. Running between the front and rear plate bags, we have what is known as the "cummerbund", with 6 integrated AR/AK mag pouches, 3 on each side. The cummerbund is also elasticated and adjustable, allowing for guts up to 140cm in diameter, so you can, in all likelihood, still scran a Full English before the game and still fit your rig comfortably.
The shoulders of the Recon Plate Carrier are also adjustable, requiring the Velcro to be disconnected and set to suit your preferences. The backing is made from breathable mesh, helping you cool off, avoiding discomfort and sweat patches. If your budget is tight and you need a light, compact yet functional plate carrier, you're in good hands with the 8Fields Tactical Recon Laser-Cut Buckle Up MOLLE Plate Carrier!
