The plate carrier/chest rig I have in my mind is a replacement for good old fashioned web gear.
It needs to carry (at least)
6 AR magazines.
2 pistol magazines.
1 canteen.
1 pistol holster.
1 bayonet.
Preferably in a color that goes with the tan/coyote of the tactical purse/grab bag.
It's got to fit my tubby ass.
I imagine that if I got one with plates and walked around in it a bit I'd either lose weight or finally push my arthritic joints past the fail points and be walking around in a walker from now on...
It's amusing to me that I don't really intend to use it.
It's a prop for some fantasy photos.
But I want to be able to use it.
If I went with a plate carrier rather than just a chest rig, I'm going to have to have a plate that stops bullets too. For some pictures. Hidden inside the carrier, the war rated plate will be for pictures.
