Cyclone RS Plate Carrier

My name is anthony sams.I'm a united states army airborne Veteran i was also air assault the reason I wanted to state.This is because I used this plate carrier for these operations.And it is far superior than the issued plate carrier.It's lightweight and comfortable has good padding, but holds the plates in place.The laser cut webbing does a great job, and I was very happy with the performance of this unit

Overall I would give this plate carrier a good review. The materials and stitching seem to be of good quality and heavy duty. The pattern is true muticam black and looks sharp. My only real negatives (hence the 4 stars) is that the carrier does not have any padding in the shoulder straps. They are just simple velcro staps that are functional but bare bones. For the price point I would have appreciated a little padding and also the ability to secure radio Mike wires and hydration tubes across the shoulder straps. My other concern are the attachment buckles they appear to be heavy duty, but with one quick pull on the pull cord and they detach. My concern is that they may get detached in a physical altercation. I am used to the first spear type of buckles that you have to pull up or down on to get them to release. I have not had enough time to truly test the buckles so maybe they will be ok in the long run. Overall I would recommend this plate carrier.

plate carrier has tons of MOLLE space on the front, sides, and rear. Makes it a great tool to attach one of Condor's multi purpose pouches, mag carriers, hydro packs, etc. Lightweight construction so it isnt overbearing with plates.

Only reason I put 4 stars is the cummerbund isnt the easiest to adjust without some tinkering and there arent many videos, etc explaining.
