    If you are looking for some legitimate body armor, like a plate carrier and a set of ballistic plates, that you know will fit properly, take a look at the Slickster.1 by Ferro Concepts, made exclusively for SKD Tactical.
    The Ferro Concepts Slickster.1 is almost identical to their regular Slickster, save it is sized for the SKD Ballistic Plates. This is hugely advantageous because there is zero slop in the plate bags. Often times armor manufacturers have different dimensions for their "10x12" ballistic plates. This leads to fitment issues with the plate carriers.
    The Slickster.1 is offered in Black, Olive Drab, Coyote, Multicam and Multicam Black. The SKD Ballistic Plates can be found in Lvl 4 Stand Alone as well as Lvl 3 Special Threat.

    RMA Armor. They are NIJ cert. Level IV and $135 made in Iowa.

    It’s a great PC except for the fact that the Velcro that holds the shoulder straps in place wears out after a year or so of hard use. I had to sew my shoulder adjustment closed to stop it from slipping when I run

    One of my coworkers have one. I life how you used the call out thing as an example. If you went back to security contracting over seas would you trust it over there? I've never used one so I can't speak on that design, but playing army for 10 years and seeing how trashed/dirty my IOTV got how well does the velcro work covered in dust/mud and so forth? I was looking at those a while back but found a good deal on a shellback banshee (that it turns out I'm too fat to fit LMFAO). I do contracting state side and it looks like it would be a good plate carrier for that purpose.

    iv been using a slickster for work for about a year now, the only thing to complain about is after 12-16 hour shifts the shoulders start to bother you. unless your wearing some heavier clothing.

    I tried one of this on, the were super comfortable. No shifting at all.
    My complaint was the cut of the plate, my shoulders and chest are wider than the average user and it didnt cover enough of me 😂.

      Because being shot at is the only thing you need to know when sewing together a plate carrier.
